I leased a brand new vehicle so if they ever get in an accident (god forbid), hopefully all the latest and greatest safety features will keep them alive.
There are dozens of reason people like to own a new vehicle other than impressing chicks and the new car smell. One day when you grow up, you will realize that some things in life are way more important than a few hundred dollars a month.

You are probably in the minority here, North Americans love living beyond their means, its one of the reasons you can take out 85% of the equity of your house on a line of credit.
I realize that you might want nice new safety features, but unless you are buying a brand new BMW/Volvo/Merc you are getting the same safety features in a 2010 golf as a 2005 BMW 328i.
