Lunch time - have to run by the parental units place to pick up some left over parts for the NSX. Finally sold them, so it's time to ship them out and get paid!

Not sure what I want to do for lunch yet. Have some hot dogs here in the fridge that I can cook.. but I kind of want to eat out.

Arbys, Subway, Wendys, or Hot Dogs from fridge?

Since 2002 I have had 6 cars, and I currently have three. It's time to simplify too.
I've had 9 since Nov '99 and currently have 4, to simplify would be sensible.

My credit qualifies me for 1% over the best possible rate - so on a 8 yr old vehicle I'd qualify for 11.5% APR with a max term allowance of 5 Years / 60 Months.

Say for some crazy reason I could find a 98' NSX for $40,000 ... that's still $879.70 / month.
Yeah, I understand... I love the NSX, I just can't rationalize actually buying one.

... I can tell you what not to do. DO NOT buy an Mitsubishi Evolution.



Still wish I could have taken that car to DBR 06' though.
I really like the looks of the Evo X...

That's how I was at the beginning. Especially with the fact that I placed a $4,000 deposit on mine by phone, without even seeing the vehicle in person. In fact, I had never even sat in an NSX before. Purchased the one way plane ticket to go out and pick her up.

I'd have to admit, it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. The NSX is well worth the price and then some....

I think the Evo has only been getting more ugly over the years. The Evo8 was my far my favorite.
