What Car Is Good For A 140k Income? by buske(op): 7:22am On Sep 23, 2018
Hello auto gurus,

I'm a bachelor, earning an average of 140k monthly income and intend to get a car

I need the car so that I can beat time to work and the hassles of going to work using public transportation.

Please any candid advice on what make of car to go for that is affordable in terms of maintenance, reliability and availability of spare parts?

Because I'm a benz fan, I'm thinking of the 2003 c240. However, other opinions are highly welcomed.

Bro,Get a benz...Forgot about corolla.....Corolla is very visible for criminals..
C240-2003 model is very ok.....but if you can get the 2005/2006 model would be most preferable.

Ignore this guy.
Get a Corolla/Kia Rio/Civic/Elantra.

You don't make enough money to handle a luxury car yet, no offense.

Not bad. More expensive than an Elantra, though.

Old Benz require lots of maintenance which that salary can't handle. Look for a tokunbo 2003-2007 Corolla. It's cheap to maintain and will give you peace of mind.
