I always leave "storage" insurance on it, that is what I do in winter so that is what I will do now but its A LOT cheaper. No reason to insure a vehicle that sits.

Nothing in particular, the t4 build went over budget and my plans to refinance my house fell through which was what I was planning to use to pay for the overage.

So I had debt that I don't want and needed some extra scratch and seeing as how I rarely drive the car I figured it was the ideal thing to downgrade.

Originally I was going to sell the car completely but seeing the time/energy/dollars i have invested I came up with this compromise as I am sure I would just end up buying another fun car eventually anyway so why get rid of it now.

We shall see, maybe I end up with a big boy setup again but I think I will be happy with the new setup i am planning.

Turbo off this weekend, so now car will wait until I get around to putting it back together.

Might not be this year honestly, might wait for spring for bonus and tax return time.

Sounds like a solid plan you described as cars should always be on the back burner when it comes to financial shit.

Big boy setups are over rated anyways. Just get something that's still "quick" and fun. My setups pretty simple and should net 10s if all goes well on the launch.

Keep up the good work and let things fall in to place. At least that's how I look at it.

Cars aren't everything :)

I kind of made plenty of money on selling stuff...

Acquiring firearms is ftw, sorry if you don't agree.

All it means is the evo sits longer, not a huge deal to me.
