Somebody help me. I am in the process of considering selling the teener to fund a miata. Here's the deal: Currently my daily driver is a 98 Suburban and the $2.00/gal gas prices are killing me. My 914 is basically a street legal track car that would take a lot of work to make a comfortable driver (currently no heating/ventilation parts installed and needs some window and targa seals bad). I only drive it on nice days w/ no chance of rain. I need a car that I can drive everyday (economical and fun) that still has the ability to do good things at the track.
For about the same money as I could get out of my 914, I could buy a nicely mod'ed Miata that has good heat, a/c, and a stereo...that I could drive in the rain, snow, and summer heat. Somebody talk me out of it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Duuude Where's My Car ?
Do what you want, but, know this.... You'll be baaack ! happened to me not so long ago ! Agree with the other posts, sell the V8 gas monger, and get yourself a commuter mobile! I was in your same shoes, rang-up 300k on two Ford Escorts (in 5years), still missed my 914. Had the same experience with motorcycles, Huummm, must be a need -for-speed ! Good Luck, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
