Or he simply borrowed the car for the day, perhaps from a parent. Bo (yup, that's his name) is young and very hot so if one is into scruffy, blue collar pups, sugar daddy while unlikely isn't entirely out of the question.
Either way, be sure to tell him that's a lot of money for a Volkswagon.
Or maybe you never learned to borrow more than you an afford to pay back... Modern America is founded on the principle of instant gratification - regardless of whether you can afford it.
Could be a lease. I had a co-worker who would lease a porsche. Said it made her feel good. I tried to point out that for the money she spent leasing the car for 3 years, she could have owned another car, but she didn't care. As long as she could make the payments, she'd drive a car beyond her means.
. My suspicions are along the same line as abqdan. LOTS of people live beyond their means. Once you have a regular job with a regular paycheque (er, in his case, paycheck), credit companies are quite prepared to lend significant numbers of $$.
at least it's a prudent tangible asset, as opposed to vacations or frivolities.
