Hehe, no worries, I can easily pass of as a working 20 year old guy from the corporate ladder unfortunately, I've inherited a look-old-look rather than my other sibling's look-young-look. It has its perks... like managing to go into R-13 movies (Matrix Reloaded pa nun) at 11.

I'm pretty sure I'm not that type of guy that would buy another car at 2-3 years again even if I can afford one easily. I'd say the next car would probably be a daddy car for the kids... and that's years away.
Household's culture revolves around bargaining and financial freedom as a core. Funny on how I still remember haggling over my "allowance" from my father. In the end, I got a nice sum (compared to my HS allowance anyway). Unfortunately, I found out that my brother's similar college allowance was even higher (and that's when movie prices costs Php140) and later protested for "wage increases" due to "inflation" which failed as I expected. Haha..
Since I'm pretty sure they wouldn't barge on their decision for me to split the cash if I purchased something lower, I'll settle for a Sonata. I'd still raise my brows over the Premium variant though, even I'll have a tough time justifying how spending the extra 200k for bigger rims, panoramic glass roof, push start buttons (everything they'll equate as unnecessary) is worth it. Maybe I should go use the "I need the 200% more airbags!" argument
Given a budget I can get to keep for myself, I'd really purchase a fast bike. Fuel efficient (better than a car anyway), cheaper than a Civic (it's not a Ducati no worries), and more practical (must hit side mirrors along the way..). They didn't like how the mortality rate for bikes though

Goodluck sa maintenance ng hundred thousand peso bikes.
Even BMW bikes are cheaper than Civic FDs, rich people still find it a hard time taking care of their own bikes.
Pati magkano yung hospital bills pag naaksidente ang rider.
Tsaka nga pala paano maisasakay ang mga LCD TV sa motorcycle?
Buhay na buhay ang BGC this evening. Bukas halos lahat ng restaurants. Sabi pa nung isang cashier...
Traffic!
