Default I have a problem.

Last month, I was driving a 94 Integra. It was a perfectly fine car. I owned the car for nearly a year, not a single problem. It was pretty quick, looked flawless inside and out (mostly stock), and was great on gas. I bought this car as a replacement for my 1990 Integra, which was having some problems.

The S2000 purchase was a bit on the spontaneous side... I walked into a dealership, took it for a test drive, and walked out on a good deal. I spent that entire night wishing I had bought the car. I couldn't think about anything else. I showed up the next day with my checkbook, drove it off the lot, and the rest is history.

I've owned the car for 4 weeks. I love it, I don't regret buying it at all, but I'm still not satisfied.

I've always been a Ferrari fanatic, but that's no excuse. I want an F355. Now.

WILL I EVER BE SATISFIED? Those of you with more experience than I, tell me if I just have a horribly expensive addiction that will never go away. I'm 20 years old. 21 in 2 days. I don't need a god damn Ferrari.

Just realized that post sounded a little braggish, I only meant to ask if anyone else has this same mindset

I'm the same way. But I fully admit that I'm all talk. I try to stay away from car dealerships because I know if I drive one of the cars in my head, I'll do something foolish. I just bought a condo and will be parallel parking a 1997 Maxima in front of it. I spend half the day staring at E36 M3 coupes and convertibles, S4s, and Supras. It's going to be a while before I can upgrade to a place with a driveway where I can safely house one of the aforementioned machines.

I've got my Modena all planned out.

Slate grey, beige leather with racing seat option, Challenge rear grille, Challenge suspension, HRE 545 wheels, polished with slate grey centers, it goes on and on, damn it!
