Just like what I said if you can afford it then buy it, use it in a sense that you think fit. I couldn't say what you think affordable is as some will spend 10%, some will spend 50% of their monthly income on car payment.

For us in HK, the price difference of a 20i vs a 35i with similar spec except for the engine is about 25,000 USD.

For me 25,000 USD spend elsewhere seem more reasonable then investing in an engine because of more power and better sound.

Is a luxury for me in that sense, hence I couldn't afford it.
