I have never bought a new car ever. I've just never really been able to justify the payments. I get it, and I'm not saying there's anything wrong with buying new cars at all, but I find it a tad amusing how much energy people spend getting every last cent off the price of the car when it will depreciate 30% on delivery.

I always find this statement amusing. While not completely inaccurate in the general sense, it's not like there is a marketplace for cars right off the lot with 1 day ownership for 30% off.
In reality, if you were to immediately sell a brand new car after getting it home, the depreciation would be a few % pts.. Why wouldn't someone buy a brand new car and save a bit of money!
