At least, I'm pretty sure it is.
My car won't pass smog. It appears to have a blown head gasket. Not to mention it still needs a shitload of engine work that I really don't feel like paying for or dealing with. I have not made a final decision, but I've already started looking for a bug. I'm about 98% sure that cutting my losses and getting out now is the right thing to do. I can't afford to keep fixing the 914. As much as I love driving it, it's killing me to try to keep it on the road. *sigh* I so wanted this car to be a good thing. |

QUOTE(SirAndy @ Mar 29 2004, 08:12 PM) what can you afford? realisticly? I can afford a bug. I don't live in Southern California, by the way. I live in San Luis Obispo, not Los Angeles. I can't afford to drive a Porsche right now. That's the bottom line. |
