The next thing is when someone builds a 600+ hp car, they expect it to drive and be reliable like their stockish 250 rwhp GT. Not happening. When you build a car, you better be expecting to break, spend a LOT more money on maintanence, and not be able to hook up for crap on the street. You also start thinking, "whats the point of having a fast street car that I dont race, but have 400 hp." Its a financial burden, and its just not fun anymore sometimes. Mike has a race car, he's found his niche in road racing, and doesnt like beating on his baby. My situation was different, I decided to cash in my chips to get rid of the car payment faster, and I havent been happier in quite some time. Its good to know I only owe a few thousand more and it will be all mine. And btw, I still look at my car when Im walking away from it too

I have acquired some credit card debt that I didn't want. Some for the Mustang, some for the Civic. Needless to say, I DONT LIKE BEING IN DEBT!

Not to mention the following:

1: I AM UNEMPLOYED
2: I will be using this car as a Daily Driver again.
3: Gas is not $1.49 a gallon for 93 as it was when I installed the S/C.
4: I get into boost only once or twice when I drive the car. I am not using the car to its full potential.
5: I fear the law man and they are everywhere in NC.

I am sure there is more than that, but these are the thoughts going through my itty, bitty mind.

Now, I don't mind the car payment...I can live with that. But, car payment, $4k personal loan (which, BTW, was a debt consolidation loan) and now a $7K credit card balance incurred all within the last 12 months :wallbash:
is just too much for me to handle.
Don't get me wrong, I can make the payments once I start working again, but I don't want to make payments....I WANNA PAY THEM OFF!!
Then, I can start playing with the race car again. :shifty:

OK, maybe I do somewhat. Hell, I'll even admit I want something that is fast but has more space. If I come across a blown Marauder for a good price, I might kiss the stang goodbye!
But, I still turn around in parking lots after walking away from my Stang so I must love it.
