It depends- does she have a job? If she is paying it herself- thats ok. It is a dumb thing to invest in but if it pleases her vanity- go for it- u live once!

I wouldnโ€™t marry anyone who is stupid enough to buy a new car much less finance it. 1k a month for new 2023 car when a 2015 ford focus can do the same job?
 
Time to get acquainted with the bus station.

I donโ€™t understand why people are obsessed with Materalism. Unless you have the money to pay it off completely it is really unnecessary to be dealing with Debt & Ribaa. If an older cheaper car takes you to work everyday and helps pay your bills what more do you need? Nobody cares if you drive a shiny new truck to your warehouse job lool

(Ignoring the obvious issue of Riba).

The used car markets have been pretty crazy over the last two years. Newer used cars are still almost the same price as new cars. Maybe it's her first car and she needed a reliable car for work due to poor transit options.

If you can, It's definitely better to find something older and reliable and save up cash to buy something newer in the long run though. I can't imagine having such a large monthly debt obligation just for a car.

I am looking, mate :)
Am I right in concluding, you like your women to be dependent, and subservient?

Postscript:
On reflection, in a recent discussion, you argued, the lady was not his responsibility TILL they got married; if I were to go by your previous rationality, then she is not his responsibility YET, therefore does not have to consult him. Surely, the same apply here, no?

ninyahoow Maxaa kaa siya!

This car contract is perhaps 7 years agreement, correct ? (She will be paying ..umm..correction! He will be paying monthly for the next 7 years ).

When you know l that youโ€™re going into a dam marriage you should consult with the man.
I stand corrected

You have a decent head on your shoulder unlike the lunatic above you, the Aussie Somali female with this weird Thai alphabet name.

Haye walaal, I shall cease, desist.

I think it is a matter of affordability, and those of us with disposable cash flow could afford, and others with limited income could not.

1 thousand dollars for 7 years?? Someone do the math. Heโ€™s paying double of the current market price of the car including with added interest. He better be hoping she has some hidden cash on the side. Financing a Car for 7 years is the biggest ripoff subhanallah

:damn:

Older cars are now more expensive than the new one, for the Fed. gov't subsidies new one.

I drive this to work, and it is cheaper than its 5 year old equivalent.

Do you drive often? I'm driving a 2004 Honda CR-V (probably the best-built engine in history) with no issues, but I'm fortunate enough to only go to work in-person ~5 days a month and even then it's just a 5 min drive to the train station. But I do plan on upgrading when prices stabilize, there are still too few used cars on the market.

The average car loan is 36 or 48 months in my circles, and mostly cleared in 24 months. I do not know about the terms in the hood.

Those of you in Europe, and not in the US, may not realise, cars are a necessity in the US, with there being no reliable public transportation, and are bloody expensive.

And when driving through snow blizzard, as a gentleman, you would want your Mrs, or ladies in your life, to be in a reliable, robust motor.

I do now more than ever, and I do not even enjoy driving, but have to for work between States, and haul material sometimes. If you actually visit your local Honda dealer, you will find your 2004 is almost as expensive as the new ones - not quite, but you get the gist of it.

CR-V, like Rav, is a very reliable motor, and could run forever, and could sell it for 15g easy, provided it is in good standing.
