There are a lot of smart people telling you no, but your response still seemed to want to justify it.

Some facts: (reinforcing what others have said)
- your financial position is not guaranteed
- the car is pure discretionary spend, health expenses, retirement, college for kids... are not
- is will lose value
- whether you like it or not you are of the instant gratification generation ( see my post to Al on his sons build - many hours and one small step at a time
- at 29 you are invincible! I know, and most of us know, we were all that age and anything was possible

Anything is possible. Just make sure to keep the main thing the main thing and a loan for the car is not that.

One mans opinion

Yes I waited for 30 years to build mine and I could have "afforded" it before but other things come up.
