Default girlfriend got mad at me for racing

The R will be kept.

The girl as well.

To those who think That I dont deserve the R. Well your all wrong

Since I was High School I wanted a 97 Type R. After school I got a $6.00 hour job.
I took me a year to save a good down payment. At this time their was no 99 type R's. So I settled for a 97 Gsx Eclipse Turbo.

After a year or so THE DAMD! PIECE OF **** GSX caught on fire twice. The dealer was the one who fixed it and they never found the problem.

The day I got the gsx back is the same day I got a TYPE R.

Now I HAVE TO DRIVE 90 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. JUST TO KEEP THE R.
ITS WHAT I AWALYS WANTED SINCE HIGH SCHOOL IT TOOK ME YEARS TO GET IT AND NOW I SIT IN TRAFFIC AND DRIVE HOME EVERY DAY PUTTING 200 MILES OR MORE A DAY. THAT SUCKS.

I LOVE MY R, MORE THAN I SHOULD LOVE ANY CAR. I WAS THE FIRST PERSON WHO DROVE IT AND HIT VTEC IN IT. I WASH THE CAR, LIKE TWICE A WEEK. ALL I DO IS TALK ABOUT THE R.

This post made me realize that one, dont jump into conclusions. WAIT and relax.
I still believe people come first, but I do love my TYPE R, just go ask my acura dealer. I see them more then my relatives.

Well this will be my last post. But 429 WILL BE IN MY HANDS FOREVER. UNLESS THEY STEAL IT OR CRASH OR SOMETHING UNNATURAL.

Thank GOD i still have my R.

I don't think you should do that for a girlfriend. Maybe if she was your wife....

I can see the flames coming, but her safety is more important than the R.
If i cant contol myself then I must sell the R.

And Yes she comes first.

Please tell me this is a joke! If it isn't, my take is if she doesn't like you for you, then you are with the wrong person.
*edit* Keep your R!!!!!!!!!!!

Selling the R won't help that. Be a man and learn some self restraint.

Tell her to propose to you before you do anything too drastic.

LOL, sounds like a good compromise. No sense in selling the R if she isn't ready to commit

You have a family?

Tell her to put a ring on your finger or the car stays.

That's her talking through you. You sound like a drone... "i should have had restraint... i should be safe" BLAH BLAH.
Tell me: how did you feel when you were racing that guy today? Oh yea, that's right. You LOVED IT. how are you going to feel in a few months (or a year, or tommorrow) when you regret your decision? You'll be angry at your girlfriend (if she still is your girlfriend, who is now learning that she can get anything she wants from you, not good) for making you sell your car. Even if you feel that it is YOUR decision now, you'll regret it.

You said it. there are plenty of fish in the sea. and as long as you aren't being a total moron on the streets, then you ought to go find some girl who cares for you as you are instead of giving in to get a little action and 'love'.

but.... it's your car and your life. but you sound like you are simply repeating lines that someone told you. I know... when i was 20-21 i was engaged to someone who (if i was in my right mind) i would NEVER consider to be marriage material now 5/6 years later (now). Save yourself!!!
