Sorry to hear man, hopefully after your house is done your wife will let you buy another one.

He mentioned he wanted another MR2 Turbo, which is a slow and painful death

Well, I think it was the FD or the wife, and he's still married

That's why you always marry a reasonable wife...

I think she was reasonable until he blew his motor, had the new one street ported and BNR Stage 3s added, high flow cat, intercooler, ECU, BOV, etc all in one shot. The successive trips to KD Rotary to get everything straightened out, tuned, and dyno'd (I think he did 350+ at 15-16 psi) kind of overdid it.

My gf is quite fine with me having my FD, but if I drop a few additional thousand in one shot (plus my existing payments) I might become a free man real quick.

Or in my case, you own the FD before you meet the wife. My car is grandfathered in, and she can't do a damn thing about it She might gripe if I spend a couple $k on stuff, but she knows the rules.

Well she's currently looking for a new job, and it looks like she may make an extra 35k/year. (She took a pay cut coming to her current job, and will move up to the next one). Methinks a diamond ring may pay big dividends

<fingers crossed>
