Thank you for the responses so far.

I view it as an investment in my happiness, is there going to be a financial return on the car at a later date? Unlikely. VERY unlikely. I fully understand that I could invest the money in real estate/stocks/bonds and see a high rate of return. Being that I am young I would like to purchase a car of such standards while I can enjoy it.

I'm roughly spending 1/4th of my inherited funds on the automobile of my choice. Concerns to me are repairs/upkeep. I would prefer not to spend $130k to have it followed by $70k in repairs. - I can handle around $30/$35k in the years that I own it. - I own a business and am rather gifted at what I produce, I believe long term that will hold as my primary source of income, I don't want to get lazy simply because of money left to me.

Investment was a poor word choice on my end.
