It wasn't your first car though, was it? So you already had some idea of maintenance costs and shit like that. How many times have you heard the tale of a kid who buys a high end car as their first vehicle that they can barely afford to purchase, then when the expensive maintenance rolls around they can't afford it so they cheap out and skip maintenance work or buy shoddy parts and end up with a trashed car.
