Not everyone in the comments section was swept up in the celebration. Several users raised practical concerns about whether a security guard's salary would cover the cost of maintaining a luxury vehicle.

"But he is still earning the same gate security salary. How will he maintain this beast of a car? Noooo maarn, it's bad."

@luvkhum added:

"Nonsense buy this guy a house or flat, a BMW is a luxury car, that expensive to maintain and depreciates very fast."

Others, however, pushed back on the criticism.
