Wow. Nightmare is an understatement. That's an incredible chamber of horrors you've been sucked through. My heart goes out to you man.

I'm sure it's tough to turn back sometimes.. ask any gambler to just "cut their losses". But just don't let the car (and money you put into it) start wrecking your personal life, get out before it does. Remember that while your car might be hot, fast, shiny, new, slick and badass now, it will be anything but in 3 short years. Instead, it'll be busted, rusty, slow, limping, wrinkled and stinky.

Only do this is you can afford it! I hope you get your situation worked out, Alex.

this is the 2nd story that I have read about cjb80 and a f-d up S2000. This guy sounds like a dumb ass. WTF. I feel bad about what has happened to. I would have turned into a big dumb meat head stomped his ass in to the ground like a back woods swamp monster.

Another story and another reason why I am staying away from FI. This car isn't meant to be FI. IMO.
