Even if you missed the chance to buy a dream car at the end of 2018, there's never really a bad time to purchase a vehicle you've long coveted.
So why not think about splurging on something special? Sure, you can do the responsible thing and live within your means, or opt for versatile basic transportation. But that's, well, kind of boring.
It's a big, bright world of cars out there, and every once in a while, spending the college fund might be justified. Kidding! Not justified!

Not the 488 GTB, the latest of Ferrari's mid-engine sports cars and a brilliant machine. Rather, the drop-top version, the 488 Spyder, for a cool $393,000.
