help me forget about it

I have this itch latley to buy a 350Z track in blue or black. I would still keep the vic (black would be neat then I would have two black cars). I could afford it, but I would not be able to buy a house for a couple of years. Someone please tell me that I am stupid and I should just be happy with what I have.

Be happy w/ what you have. Atleast w/ the house you'll have somewhere to park your civic.

Man...a house is worth WAY more then a car. Its keeps you warm and you can park your civic in the garage...All positives in my book

If you buy another car, it will only depreciate in value, whereas the house will likely appreciate. Plus you gotta figure home buying is getting more and more expensive every year.

stick it out with the civic, settle down in a nice place to call your own, then reconsider your ideas. At least thats what i would do. I love cars more than anything else in the world, but id rather have a nice place first. My gf was going through a similar dilema. I just don't understand what the rush is all about? you hate great fuel economy that much or something? If anything keep the civic and save while you still can.

yea just get the house! i mean if its THAT bad. take 3 or 4 thousand out and TURBO your civic. You will be satisfied and have a HOUSE to live in. The price you pay for a satisfying Modified civic is a fraction of what it cost to own a 350z cost and insurance wise!!!!

GET THE HOUSE, YOU WONT REGRET IT!!!
