Swap it to electric, you can buy plenty of conversions that cost under $10,000.

Problem SOLVED!!!!





For me, wouldn't change anything. Time and weather are my limiting factors. I do like my little "fun runs" and will take the long way to work on a nice day. This will be the first year the Honda is garaged for the Winter and purely for enjoyment on top down days. Things would be different if I lived in Cali, though.

i worry most about the tires.

Tires:

good set will set you back around $800, burn it out in 6 months, $1600 a year in tires, + track slicks $1000 per year, you're looking at $2600 in tires a year (depending on how much you drive)

gas, it's $30 a week (full tank), that's only $1560.

I use 2 tank a week (lead foot), so $3120 a year.

well, i guess the gas does cost more. (depends on how much you drive).

then oil change : oil change every 2 weeks, $35 for regular change, that's $910 a year.

But then again, it's like asking, if we didn't have to eat, how great would that be.

well, i guess you'll have a lot more time on your hands if you didn't eat, because you probably don't have to goto the bathroom either.

man, it's friday, I need a drink.

Gas doesn't really matter that much to me. When it needs it, I fill her up.
