I own several 90s luxury cars and I pay very little to maintain them because I'm not a moron and know how to work on and maintain a car.

Not having a car payment is awesome but if I was going to go that route I would actually finance a car that I own when it's paid off. It's not hard if you buy a car that's not a complete piece of poo poo that you'll be stuck with in the end.

you claim to not be a moron but you own 90s luxury cars

Normal cars are lame, buy a velomobile pod car and stop wasting fuel+space lugging empty seats around. These are recumbent tricycles that can have an electric assist added as well, and the pedal power is about 4x more than a normal bicycle so it can be used for longer mid-range commutes. The majority of able bodied people could feasibly replace their car with a velomobile for city driving, as you can easily hit 30+ MPH and don't have to worry about parking as they only weigh about 30kgs and can be carried inside. They do cost upwards of $5k-$10k though:

Old Bmws will generally run forever. I daily drove a 1988 e28 535i with over 250k miles back in the mid 2000s. The thing passed the Massachusetts state emissions test back when they would put the car on a dyno with a tailpipe sniffer. The only reason I got rid of it was because of rust.

The problem is maintenance. You really can't ignore or put off anything, esp. with the 90s and on BMWs
