I bought a $25k car (out the door) back when I was making $135k a year. I was very happy with that purchase.

Pretty much same numbers. Bought a 30k car, making 130k. And I thought I was kinda stretching it.

My beater is dying and I'm struggling with the decision to buy in this range with the same salary. It's more the opportunity cost that gets me: I'd much rather invest in retirement or save for building a house than put that money into a car. But man the reliability would be nice! : )
