Porsche: The ultimate money pit
Thats about it, I realized I've spent over $5k in the last 15 months, and havent gone down the silppery slope yet, still have the same car.
However, every time I get in the driver's seat, it all feels okay.

Even doing all my own repairs, we still spend way too much on our cars. It doesn't help that we have 4 of them.
The 993 isn't a true money put though, because they still have resale value. Our 944 on the other hand is a black hole for money.

And yet every time I curse and scream, I get in the (painfully offset) driver's seat, and grin like a Cheshire Cat....
I hate this car

Some good friends think their ex-wife is the money pit. Half of what I had here, alimony there, wanting more child support because she wants a bigger place to live.
I'll take the money pit of a car over what some of them are going through any day of the week.
Pretty much what I have spent over the past 4 years in performance upgrades ($12kish) is all the further Im going with mine, besides the basic services. Im refering to the car, not boob jobs or jewelry.

$5000.00 over 15 months is still far cheaper than a wife (or ex-wife) in my experience. If I spent $1K on the car she assumed it was more like $3K and treated herself to something that cost $5K. I'll take a car any day.
