In an interview for the Netflix movie "Murder Mystery 2," which she stars in alongside Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston shares the story behind the car she bought with her first major "Friends" check, revealing why it ended up being a bust. She tells PopSugar, "My first big splurge was on a Mercedes that had a for sale sign on it for almost two years."

She recounts that the car was located near a Fred Segal on Melrose Avenue, sitting on the corner next to an Irish clothing store. "There was a little white 280 SL Mercedes. It was there for a long time. It could have been over two years. I always was like, 'I can't wait, someday, someday.' And then one day I bought it," she says.

While appearing on InStyle's podcast "Ladies First with Laura Brown," Aniston explained that she purchased the car for about $13,000 during her first year working on "Friends." She was only 25 at the time. "And then I drove it, and then drove it again... and it never drove again. It was a lemon, and that's why it's been sitting there. And I didn't know any better," the star explains.
