But if you're a salesperson and the vehicle is a tool to enable you to earn a living, I would think you don't waste money and you take operating costs into consideration. An Infiniti is much cheaper to operate per mile than a BMW. As a matter of fact, the 335 costs the same to operate as a Cayman, although the Porsche costs 10 grand more to play. Now how smart is the salesman driving the Accord?

Which brings us right back to the very beginning of the OP's journey to this board - the first and fundamental decision as to whether to get a luxury car, or not
And my recommend if he does indeed decide to go luxus, is NOt to get the 335, but rather the 328, whose operating costs are no-where near those of the 335
