Thanks for the thought Parks. To be honest, if it is not in my budget to plunk down cash, it ain't gonna happen. We just got done paying off the mortgage, which other than the monthly utilities and property tax and such, was the last loan/payment I plan to have. I haven't had to make a car payment on the last 4 cars we've owned. I like driving off the lot, "Paid in full". Other than a couple of really bad choices, I keep them 'till they are spent, usually around 15 Years and 150 to 200 thousand miles. Once I get a few years of driving a car under my butt, I get overly attached, like a marriage, for good and for bad. When it's time to put them out to pasture and buy a new car is always a mixed bag. I'm also gambling on making my next car purchase an investment of sorts. I'll drive it once in a while, when the mood strikes for 20 years or so, if I'm alive and able, and then either pass it along or sell it. To be honest, if the NSX ends up out of reach, I'll just lower my expectations and decide on plan B. I'll be a little disappointed, but life is full of disappointments in one form or another and when boiled down, "You can't always get what you want" and in the Grand scheme of things not getting the car you really want isn't worth loosing sleep over. Good night Fellow.
