Default My thrid Sebring S

I did it again ,went to look at a car with a friend and bought another S . Back in 10 I went to buy a car for my wife and ended up bringing home a beautiful S with just 27k on it.Fast forward ,:my perfect S was perfect no more after many many track days in addition to some drag racing it had seen betterdays .I never could stop driving it ,even tough I have two other cars I still put on 25k plus a yr.Now in 2014 the car had 111k and needed some tlc ,this summer I planned to repaint the car and rebuild the motor ..it went tru about a quart of oil ever 500 miles and smoked badly in vtec ...its a good I love my S and would never ever sell it ,so I was happy to do the work and keep my car .Then I went shopping w a friend went to see a mini for my friend and I ended up buying an 02 Sebring silver S with 55k,bone stock ,perfect in everyway ...the car had just been traded and was not for sale yet ...I didn't leave and drove my 'NEW' S home that night .So once again I bought...a new car and nobody knows but me ...and of course my wife ,who btw thinks I need help saying who in the world buys the same exact car 3 times ...I just laughed and said ...People who love thier car and can't stop driving it ...hence the need for a replacement every few yrs...she wasn't laughing I still was...This time around I'm going to stay off the drag strip and track days will be few in this perfect example I just bought .As far as driving it less ill try but have little dought I will be driving it often ...someone should have told me back in 04 ...this car may be addictive ,now ill need a 12 step program for recovery if I ever have to stop owning the one and only *S2k ....which will never happen so don't save me a seat in the meeting of ...I wish I never sold my S ppl ....ill own one till the end of time.

Who can read that?

Find the 'return key' and enough '...'

Have no idea if you keep crashing the cars or collecting. Shit your writing sucks. Our school system has failed us.

I completely agree. Everyone that has owned an S will always have the urge to have one. Doesn't matter how many. Hell if I could afford it I would have 2 as well haha .

Kinda similar story here. I owned an '02 sebring/black (50k miles) and was thinking of selling it to beef up our house purchase fund (this was in April 2009). Went on Autotrader to get an idea of asking prices in my area and see an identical car to mine with only 4,600 miles, only 70 miles away from me. Couldn't turn it down. Sold my original one about a month later but had two in the driveway for that stretch
