Realistically it would depend on income bracket. However (being bored
@ work), I came up with the following rule of thumb ... ;-)

0 to $10k/year = 0%, take a bus
10k to 30k = anything under $1000, junk it when it breaks.
30k to 50k = Japanesse cars, or base Passat
50k to 80k = 3 series
80k to 100k = 5 series
100k to 150k = vintage 'geezer' bmw's
150k to 200k = hello new Porsche!
over 200k = vintage Jaguars

Reid Maynard
5 series, right on target
