Wow. That would take the cake for the highest lease payment I have heard of. The lease on Carrera GTs in 05 was about $19k, might be close adjusted for time. Come out here to Atlanta and tell some stories!
I don't know if Ed realizes this, but he has the potential to be an amazing narrator..I could listen to this guy all day. He could make a paint drying tutorial interesting
Hi Ed... I love your channel. I have subscribed a while back and usu watch your vids just before I go to bed (nice bedtime stories). I have always been a car guy thru and thru... they are a real passion of mine. I thought about starting a small dealership of iconic, low mile, vehicles, but Mich changed their laws and made it much more difficult to start. Anyway, the crux of my question is: where do you do your market research? What sources do you use in valuation of a vehicle? I heard you mention a "black book"? What are good resources for market research for car enthusiasts who do not have a dealer license? Thank you if you took the time to read this, I am a big fan of you and your channel. It is your channel that has me thinking that I might one day get into a 911 or Cayman. Much love !
I've been a banker for 32 years. The information here is top notch. In the 90's, I was the top indirect lender in the nation, booking $300 million in car loans in 1995. The only thing that has changed since then is the average cost of a car and the amortization periods.
This is honestly what I needed right now. 22, never bought a car before, been driving an inherited '95 Escort, want to get either a Focus RS or ST as a backup car, and I have no idea what I'm getting into. Perfect timing!
I was an indirect lender for years and this guy's explanation is spot on. I spent a few years financing yachts after cars and its much different than this, but his video is also a good explanation for all autofinancing because it pretty much works the same. One area he didn't cover is Gap Insurance for these cars. I don't know if its available, but if it is, and you can't simply right a check for the balance difference, buy the Gap Insurance.
Evan's Garage The cars were the exact same model, trim/optioned out, mileage and similar history reports? I'm no expert on the field but I've been selling used cars for quite a long time and seems just strange to think that the year was they only reason the would drop the interest rate 40% simply due to the fact it was a single year newer.
Unfortunately this is the lay of the land. You've never went to get a bank to get a car loan and look at there chart. They sometimes read. 2 years old and newer. 1.9% interest. More than 2 years to 4 years old. 2.9 %. More than 4 years old to 5 yrs old. 4%...So on and so fourth.
Daniel Grimes yea my credit union is weird like that. This was like 1.5 years ago now but a 2009 and newer was all 1.79% and 2008 and back was all significantly higher depending on the year.
Ed is a great teacher with a precise conversational tone. Very easy to understand and he is extraordinarily knowledgeable about a multitude of subjects. Keep it up VINWiki!
best video to understand car financing, that guy is the man! I help people with their credit and now I know how to talk to them about exotic car financing yayyyy
Soooo... I'm probably going to rewatch this video about 6 or 7 times while looking up all the financial terms Ed just mentioned. It's extremely instructive and I will be clicking the like button for similar informative videos like this one.
Damned good job!!! :-D These are the kinds of things we never got told when we were young and had to find out the hard way. So glad there are more people stepping up and telling what needs to be known to actually achieve dreams. It is a great thing. Thank you Ed. Now you've got me thinking about my roll over date for the Exige already. There's a 911 Turbo across the street from me in limbo (sitting around between 2 neighbors selling it to one another, doing nothing currently) and would be more than my 40k for my Exige, so I could start that ladder climb quickly. :-) Maybe punt the Exige this coming warmer weather.
Except the value of the car is much higher which opens other avenues of financing which would not be available or would not be practical in a car valued at a lower price. Other variables such as the percentage value over your previous loan would not necessarily be factors when purchasing a vehicle at a lower price point.
My general rule of thumb is, financing is fine as long as you can still afford to write a check for it. Especially when it comes to buying a dream car. Just my personal guidelines I like to live by. Interesting video! Never heard of one payment leases before.
Yup, this is so true. A long time ago, I overextended when I bought my BMW motorbike, then lost all my overtime. Never again. Now, I’ve only used finance if it’s cheaper than using my savings - ( interest versus tax implications). So many people don’t realise that if you can’t afford it - you cannot afford it - simple as that. Also - be really sure you know why you want “that” car. I’ve had some fabulous cars. But my all time favourite everyday was a £4000 everyday Saab - limited edition Viggen, highly tuned, and tried to kill me daily, but wow, it was a lot of fun every morning. Because it’s expensive, it doesn’t mean it’s good. Buy the car you WANT not the car others say you should have.
1:10 Credit Score: 740+ Comparable Credit Experience: 50% of previous car loan Requested Term: Traditional - 48, 60, 72 months; Extended - 120, 144 months Loan to Value: 80% loan to book value (banks want you to put 20% down payment) Ability to Repay: Verifiable annual income exceeds annual sum of loan payments (on exotic cars)
Ed ever since I subbed when you had around 23k subs, every single video you come out with is solid and interest me. You've become my idol as a successful and confident individual. Thanks you
Thank you for asking. For me, I might want to address: 1) planning for future costs of a car, just because you can afford an $80k car, doesn't mean that you've planned well enough for the $10k clutch job. 2.) The extended loan periods can be right for the right person in the right situation, but people only see the end payment and a 10yr loan is generally a bad idea for most people wanting to buy an exotic. 3.) Maybe address issues around factory warranties and extended warranties on exotics? GAP coverage, etc. Just my $.02. I tend to buy my cars with a large chunk down and then pay them off quickly (under 2 yrs) because I hate debt, but that's me. To me, buying an exotic/expensive car needs a fair amount of forethought and planning. Again, just my $.02.
Gearhead Daily I couldn't agree more with the ownership costs being expensive. Im being quite careful on my first exotic purchase, just to be sure i can Afford to maintain it properly.
Gearhead Daily After spending enough on a 73 Corvette over 21 years to own a beautiful Murci, Im walking softly. But you can be sure i will stay tuned in this channel for the best advice
@Ed When you buy a car as an investment, how do you preserve and maximize your investment over time? As if I bought a manual murcielago and I might drive it to dinner once every few months or less. How would you go about maximizing resale value after 5 years, 10 years, etc?
Wow, that was eloquently put, and I spent time in the car business. Instead of giving people advice on how to buy a car I'm just forwarding them to this video from now on
Manuel? Did you get it yet? That's my dream! And maybe down the road take it to underground for a nice TT system! Ed what do you think about TT systems on Gallardos?
Ed Bolian can you make a video taking about how to know you can afford a car? Say you don’t have all the money up front for the csr, so you decide to finance it. When would it be ok to finance and when would it be a dumb decision???
Fantastic video as always, was really hoping to be able to ask some questions but you pretty much answered anything I could think of anyway so great stuff! looking forward to more videos of this type in the future
Ed, I’m sure you’ll never see this comment as the video is older but I just wanted to say thank you.. I’ve been in the car business for just 13 months. Admittedly I’m still very wet behind the ear with this industry. But you’ve personally taught me more through these videos than my management team has throughout the last year .... by ten fold. Again, Thank you sir sincerely.
Congrats on making it through your first year. That is a huge hurdle. An unfortunate reality of the car sales industry is that there is far too little valuable training. Glad you are out learning where you can and I am so glad this has been useful. Best of luck in the role and wherever it takes you. Have a great weekend! -Ed
Ed could sell a Matchbox Ferrari on a 10 year lease at $25 per month including pricey add-ons such as hand made walnut display box with leather lining and the Ferrari made of 3D printed carbon fiber and actual rubber tires.
Ed I watched your live stream with David . It wasn't bad but with only 300 on I think more questions could have been answered. But I do understand the bad connection. I truly love the Vinwiki car stories. I am 30 and have never even seen an exotic in my life.
Ed Bolian. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I love the Vinwiki car stories and the diversity on this channel. living in rural Pennsylvania I've never see the amazing cars you always seem to be around. Thank you for the escape from my reality. Sincerely, Jeff Park.
You are speaking the truth. I owed plenty of reg cars at a young age. My score was 525 so I started fresh with a new Dodge Caliber. I had to buy my credit back. 9 yrs later trading up in cars and payments and 8 cars later finally getting Porsche 991s cab and Porsche Panamera GTS and VW Passat paying a total of $3800.00 a month in car notes. Now finally trading both Porsche’s in to get a preowned Lamborghini huracan. I knew I had to prove I could make the payments for a long time and on time. Now my dreams are coming true. I Had equity in both cars and now my note is $2500 a month still got the VW for $480 as the daily driver. My total salary clearly is not enough to afford the car but the bank did it anyway because I never missed a payment. And now I’m paying less per month for the car of my dreams 🤣
@@mj7728 Nobody drive's exclusive supercars on a daily basis... Miles = depreciation... Those are cars made for sunday blasts, nightime joyride's, or canyon cruising.... Not daily drivers...
@@HouseOfPetrol i put over 90,000kms on my 2013 aventador before i traded it in for an aventador S............ i used that car as my semi daily driver perpetually hehe (all of my cars are insured for daily driving)
ok love the vids. just started bought 95 camaro coupe for 1700. new paint looks great and runs. convertible down here in Tampa. ur high end I am low end
Very informative video! I like videos like this being sprinkled in amongst the car stories. I think maybe some topics about car investments would be good. (Which cars may go up in value and which will lose value).
By far the best video series on TH-cam. Informative, entertaining, intelligent! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience... always excited for new content!
Very very informative!!! A large part of me would simply want to pay cash for an exotic car (or any car for that matter!) and not have to worry about financing. People will bitch about interest rate spreads and how I can invest the money elsewhere and that's fine, I get it. Really though, if you're going to be sweating over putting down $150k to own a used entry level exotic car, you shouldn't be buying a car like that yet since you actually can't actually afford the opportunity cost of having $150k in your car as opposed to compounding in the market. Paying cash is the truest check on what you can actually afford.
I certainly can. There is a lot less that goes into it. It works very much like regular car insurance. If you have any specific questions I can try to answer them here.
+Ed Bolian It just works the same as any other car insurance right? Except it's more expensive? I'm not sure I can think of any way it'd be different other than the insurance company not know what exactly the car is worth. There's certain insurance companies that cater more to exotic cars though? They'd know what they're worth more than Geico would. Geico and AAA and Farmers and such just uses Kelly Blue Book to determine the value of your car but it's not so simple with a one of 300 Lamborghini right?
Excellent video and information, Ed. I totally enjoy your videos, no matter the topic. You have a great speaking voice, like the James Earl Jones of car guys! Keep up the great work.
good work Ed . avid follower of your channel . have a few m series hopefully soon will take the plunge into the exotic car market gt3rs is what i would want to own one day . keep up the good work on the channel . Ann Arbor Mi
Great video! I've been able to finance a 2003 RS6 in 2013, a 2005 911S in 2015, and may look to finance a 2011 V8 Vantage next year. I've put down just enough money and gotten an excellent sub-3% rate each time so I've never been upside down, and have recouped substantial equity after each sale. Never thought I would have such incredible cars at such a young age, but thanks to careful planning it is possible!
It is tough to keep a credit score much higher than that consistent. It will swing up and down on a monthly basis so no banks require it to stay that high.
Absolutely. Plenty of people have 800+ credit scores. After all the cars I have financed and paid off, I think mine is 810 or so. Just pay all your bills, keep some good accounts open for a while, and don't carry balances on your credit cards.
Ed Bolian damn, 801, most people I know have full time job, pay their bills (supposedly), have cars and plenty of items on their credits but are in the 500's, so that's crazy, guess there doing something entirely wrong
Absolutely. More significantly, they don't usually have to. As supercars age they really stop depreciating so they are very inexpensive to own. I can easily own and drive my Lamborghini but could never stomach the cost of buying a new Mercedes or BMW.
That would be a good video. I doubt many understand how that is possible. Also floor planning, dealers actual costs, try to clarify how dealers can shuffle money from a trade in to a discounted price on the vehicle they are selling, to in house financing and back and forth, in order to give the customer the right feeling about the deal. So many do not grasp this point. It is valid on all cars for the buy here pay here lot to the new Porsche dealership. An insider tell all of sorts.
Ed, do you think the values of the manual Lambos have bottomed out yet? What kind of climb do you foresee in the next 5-10 years? Both the Murcielago and Gallardo are tops on my list especially if I could find a way to "break even" or better.
Absolutely. Manual Murcielagos have gone up by at least 25% in the last 2 years, maybe 50% in some cases. Gallardo are creeping up a bit more slowly but buy ASAP. There are lists of each on VINwiki. I think there are less than 300 manual Gallardos in the US.
Ed, Very informative I never knew how the 0% financing really worked, now I do. With your voice you could take over for Tony Robbins anytime. I would listen to you read Ikea furniture assembly directions.
It is an easy calculation. If you can investment the money elsewhere and get a rate of return that is higher than the car interest rate and your reduction of the loan balance is going to be faster than the depreciation of the car, you should take the loan.
TY Ed. always wanted a F458 or F488 ...I might go the kit car route my self...(Factory 5 GTM ,LS v8 and Porsche gear box set up) a lot cheaper to maintenance in the long run..... plus LS v8 has 1000+ hp tuning options...
Bad idea. Buy the car you actually want. The long term value of the kit is zero. People build them to make them personalized and they don't trust the work of someone else. Modern Ferrari maintenance is pretty easy. Trust me, get the real thing!
I once structured a lease for a client on a Bugatti Veyron. We had done a 72 month term at $31,000 per month, lol.
Wow. That would take the cake for the highest lease payment I have heard of. The lease on Carrera GTs in 05 was about $19k, might be close adjusted for time. Come out here to Atlanta and tell some stories!

gap insurance is the single biggest scam i've ever seen
The age thing with interest is definitely accurate. When I bought my car the bank told me 2.9% if it was a 2008 and 1.79% if was a 2009 model.

That is a great rule. Mine has always been to not finance daily driver cars. It has kept me out of trouble.
VINwiki ha! I like that. Gotta keep yourself in check. Being a car enthusiast is not cheap
Yup, this is so true. A long time ago, I overextended when I bought my BMW motorbike, then lost all my overtime. Never again. Now, I’ve only used finance if it’s cheaper than using my savings - ( interest versus tax implications). So many people don’t realise that if you can’t afford it - you cannot afford it - simple as that. Also - be really sure you know why you want “that” car. I’ve had some fabulous cars. But my all time favourite everyday was a £4000 everyday Saab - limited edition Viggen, highly tuned, and tried to kill me daily, but wow, it was a lot of fun every morning. Because it’s expensive, it doesn’t mean it’s good. Buy the car you WANT not the car others say you should have.
Great video ,I wish sales people had the ability to explain all these options in such a calm and informative manner.
thanks for the advise love the channel yall keep it up

Drive it at least 100 miles per month. They deteriorate if you don't. Use an authorized dealer for maintenance.

I Had equity in both cars and now my note is $2500 a month still got the VW for $480 as the daily driver. My total salary clearly is not enough to afford the car but the bank did it anyway because I never missed a payment. And now I’m paying less per month for the car of my dreams 🤣
$2500 per month for a car and you don't even drive it on a daily basis. Amazing.

Nobody drive's exclusive supercars on a daily basis...
Miles = depreciation...
Those are cars made for sunday blasts, nightime joyride's, or canyon cruising....
Not daily drivers...
@@HouseOfPetrol i put over 90,000kms on my 2013 aventador before i traded it in for an aventador S............
i used that car as my semi daily driver perpetually hehe
(all of my cars are insured for daily driving)
wow that means 99% of exotic car owners in history are poor if they can only afford like 1-2000 miles a year in their "baby" :D
ok love the vids. just started bought 95 camaro coupe for 1700. new paint looks great and runs. convertible down here in Tampa. ur high end I am low end
Very informative video! I like videos like this being sprinkled in amongst the car stories. I think maybe some topics about car investments would be good. (Which cars may go up in value and which will lose value).
We can do that. Thanks!
Awesome! Looking forward to seeing it!
By far the best video series on TH-cam. Informative, entertaining, intelligent! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience... always excited for new content!
*that grey mucielago is my favorite color! And I’m feeling the G8ED license plate...it means the Merci has a gated shifter right?*
+b00st3d BMW it does, but it now says VINWIKI
VINwiki *haha that’s pretty cool...I️ love hearing some of these stories, I️ have some pretty badass car stories people would enjoy ;)*
If you are ever in Atlanta come by and tell some.
Ed Bolian *id love to come down to ATL, haven’t been there yet...maybe this upcoming spring or summer*
Very good informational video! The majority of it can even be used for people looking to buy an average vehicle.
One of the reasons I watch vinwiki is because of this guy.. And his voice 💯💪😂
My favorite person on vinwiki, so knowledgeable!
Truly an inspiration his come up and success
ohh the days before i had more than 5 gigs a month,so much i missed..stay safe and take care
Very very informative!!!
A large part of me would simply want to pay cash for an exotic car (or any car for that matter!) and not have to worry about financing. People will bitch about interest rate spreads and how I can invest the money elsewhere and that's fine, I get it. Really though, if you're going to be sweating over putting down $150k to own a used entry level exotic car, you shouldn't be buying a car like that yet since you actually can't actually afford the opportunity cost of having $150k in your car as opposed to compounding in the market. Paying cash is the truest check on what you can actually afford.
Excellent explanation, Ed! Thank you!
Could you do a video like this explaining exotic car insurance?
I certainly can. There is a lot less that goes into it. It works very much like regular car insurance. If you have any specific questions I can try to answer them here.
+Ed Bolian It just works the same as any other car insurance right? Except it's more expensive? I'm not sure I can think of any way it'd be different other than the insurance company not know what exactly the car is worth. There's certain insurance companies that cater more to exotic cars though? They'd know what they're worth more than Geico would. Geico and AAA and Farmers and such just uses Kelly Blue Book to determine the value of your car but it's not so simple with a one of 300 Lamborghini right?
Excellent video and information, Ed. I totally enjoy your videos, no matter the topic. You have a great speaking voice, like the James Earl Jones of car guys! Keep up the great work.
+Thomas Bailey that is a new one. High praise. Thank you!
Oh Ed, you just sitting there putting ideas in my brain
No questions, just lovin this channel so damn much !
Thank you!
Great discussion...thank you.
good work Ed . avid follower of your channel . have a few m series hopefully soon will take the plunge into the exotic car market gt3rs is what i would want to own one day . keep up the good work on the channel . Ann Arbor Mi
This guy has smooth, buttery radio voice.
Very informative videos!!! My new favorite TH-cam channel.
I’d like to see a video on good entry level exotics
Best explanation I ever heard for car loans thanks Ed
Thanks! Hope it is useful. Please share with anyone you think will find it helpful.
thanks for the info
Great video! I've been able to finance a 2003 RS6 in 2013, a 2005 911S in 2015, and may look to finance a 2011 V8 Vantage next year. I've put down just enough money and gotten an excellent sub-3% rate each time so I've never been upside down, and have recouped substantial equity after each sale. Never thought I would have such incredible cars at such a young age, but thanks to careful planning it is possible!
Can you do a video on leasing? How it works, what to look for in a good lease, and how to get out of one if you want or need to.
Awesome video Ed, keep em coming!
What do you mean when you say that a credit score above 740 is unpredictable?
John Bauss maybe he meant 640? Still wouldn't make sense though
It is tough to keep a credit score much higher than that consistent. It will swing up and down on a monthly basis so no banks require it to stay that high.
Ed Bolian is getting to 750 that difficult? Do people even have 800 credit scores, how do you get to that point?
Absolutely. Plenty of people have 800+ credit scores. After all the cars I have financed and paid off, I think mine is 810 or so. Just pay all your bills, keep some good accounts open for a while, and don't carry balances on your credit cards.
Ed Bolian damn, 801, most people I know have full time job, pay their bills (supposedly), have cars and plenty of items on their credits but are in the 500's, so that's crazy, guess there doing something entirely wrong
Thank you I highly appreciate you everytime I watch your videos I feel closer and closer to my dream car
Are supercars really worth the price? (For the ama)
Absolutely. More significantly, they don't usually have to. As supercars age they really stop depreciating so they are very inexpensive to own. I can easily own and drive my Lamborghini but could never stomach the cost of buying a new Mercedes or BMW.
Ed Bolian ah ok thanks for the information man
Sure thing! Thanks for watching.
That would be a good video. I doubt many understand how that is possible. Also floor planning, dealers actual costs, try to clarify how dealers can shuffle money from a trade in to a discounted price on the vehicle they are selling, to in house financing and back and forth, in order to give the customer the right feeling about the deal. So many do not grasp this point. It is valid on all cars for the buy here pay here lot to the new Porsche dealership. An insider tell all of sorts.
How does it work?
Subscribed your a great narrator and story teller!
Thanks so much.
What are some good investment exotics for the next 2-5 years?
Manual Aston DBS, Lotus Exige, Porsche 997 GT2 (non RS), Spykers, Manual Lamborghini Murcielagos and Gallardos.
Ed, do you think the values of the manual Lambos have bottomed out yet? What kind of climb do you foresee in the next 5-10 years? Both the Murcielago and Gallardo are tops on my list especially if I could find a way to "break even" or better.
Absolutely. Manual Murcielagos have gone up by at least 25% in the last 2 years, maybe 50% in some cases. Gallardo are creeping up a bit more slowly but buy ASAP. There are lists of each on VINwiki. I think there are less than 300 manual Gallardos in the US.
Thanks Ed! Now to find a way to buy one for less than market value...
Dodge viper ACRs
Ed, Very informative I never knew how the 0% financing really worked, now I do.
With your voice you could take over for Tony Robbins anytime. I would listen to you read Ikea furniture assembly directions.
Is it ever better to pay cash for an exotic car outright? I take it that the answer is no if you can get a decent loan.
It is an easy calculation. If you can investment the money elsewhere and get a rate of return that is higher than the car interest rate and your reduction of the loan balance is going to be faster than the depreciation of the car, you should take the loan.
Very insightful video, thank you. I have been working my way up and this actually helps me with my next car purchase.
I had read the article before the video!!
#VINWIKI
Thanks for keeping up!
TY Ed. always wanted a F458 or F488 ...I might go the kit car route my self...(Factory 5 GTM ,LS v8 and Porsche gear box set up) a lot cheaper to maintenance in the long run..... plus LS v8 has 1000+ hp tuning options...
Bad idea. Buy the car you actually want. The long term value of the kit is zero. People build them to make them personalized and they don't trust the work of someone else. Modern Ferrari maintenance is pretty easy. Trust me, get the real thing!
the kit car doesn't handle nor give the real satisfaction of a Ferrari
Nick C You said kit car. Lol
You can just tell that it’s Ed because of the title.

Y'all heard him say it. Eds all for whatever it takes for us to get the car we want. It's time for GTA V in irl lmao 😂
I love Ed's videos! This channel is going to become big very soon
Thanks so much!
Aaaand my life goes on hold for another 10 minutes
I hope you find it to be worthwhile!
Ed Bolian just learned more on the subject than I ever did in school! Thanks Ed!
I really enjoy these videos. Thanks Ed!
Thank you! We enjoy making them.
