at the moment im seriously thinking about selling the r to save to buy my own place... im trying to figure out a price i should ask for... but ill prob come up with that number after expo..

currently the car burns oil in cyl 3... i want to replace the block(im not good at doing rebuilds, so i figured if anything slap a new block in) but if im selling the car should i bother n just sell as is or would it be better for me to fix it?(asking price wise..)

Like whoa!
Keep the car, everytime you talk about it you smile.
toss it storage for a while, then see how you feel.

 

If you're financially able, keep the R and buy the house. If not, house > R

sidenote: Bbasso - did you end up selling your R? (sorry, can't PM)

 

Just remember, you can always buy another R after you get your house.

house>car

Well?

 

O STFU!

Let me book my airfare already

 

Just remember the Porche club motto: "You can always sleep in your car, but you can never drive your house."

I along with others understand your situation. Financially the smart thing to do would be sell the car and use it on the house. You can pickup another down the road. However, we all know it will only be harder to find another one in mint condition. Its up to you on how you feel about the car, and searching for a new one.

 

When I bought my first house I had a 94 Civic Si that was my DD and a 98 ITR that was my toy. I sold the Civic and made the ITR the DD. I see you also have a Civic Si and an ITR. Sell the Civic, buy the house, and daily drive the ITR.

If you are still making payments on the Civic then getting out of that loan before the mortgage will help your debt to income ratio.

 

he would need a different dd since that will be stolen like whoa...

 

im considering doing that too... sell the si n keep the R... it wouldnt be the first time i sold a new car for an old car if i do that tho, ill prob buy a new long block n sell off the PnP head, cams n s300 n put the car back to stockish.. i have tracking so if the car did move id be called..

currently im just keeping my eyes on the market for an idea on prices and im saving on the side. cars are replaceable...

That’s a great way to look at it.

 

you can always live in your ITR.
