[QUOTE=heathas2k,Nov 20 2008, 01:11 PM] geez... I'd be happy with something simple.

I told my boyfriend (we've been talking about it.) he can get me something nice and simple, and then just get me hardtop and I'd be happy with it.

I've been looking into eventually purchasing a ring for my g/f but I'm not doing it any time soon. I'm only 18 for crying outloud!

that means you have $19K to spend on a turbo kit and/or widebody. or even pick up a 2nd S as a track slut.

me? i'm smart and taking the advise of the hundreds of married men and one woman that has told me to never get married.

10% of my gross salary at the time was what i was planning on.

instead when we broke up i put that money down on the S i'm driving. better investment, as i'm sure you'll all agree

2 months salary after taxes, 401k, health and dental, child support .... .... .... ..

Good luck Andy.

Tammy actually picked her own rings, I just paid for the damn things.
