I asked myself that same question. In this economy who pays 69K for a vehicle when your a middle income boomer? The answer that i kept coming back to was I have wanted it for 3 years.. i saved for it and had a nice trade with the sale of my 02. it is me that has to be happy and make sure that the payment or any other incurrance does not eat me alive in expenses.
The bottom line is it is I who will live and love it more so than anybody else.
If you want it, and have all your ducks in a row. The only thing that is stopping you is what
go get that spirited philly and make her your own!!
