You don't have to be rich to spend $30k on a car. After all, these days most people can work with 60-75mo financing...
I wont buy a vehicle that I have to make more than one payment on, but that's just me.
Most people seem to enjoy being broke just so they can drive a big or new shinny vehicle around.

$30k usually doesn't buy a new vehicle made from aluminum and composites.
