Good job H.

Man, in retrospect, "Race Wars" is a pretty terrible name for... anything.

It's no miata, but still pretty nice.

Congrats.

You should weld two crankcases together and make a VTEC V8

Or use two cranks and make it a U-8 like the Bugatti/King Moteurcannons

That's actually the same conclusion I came to. I was pretty set on getting another NC. But on a whim I decided to check insurance on an S2000. It was an $18 a year difference between the two.

My must haves were a cloth soft top, a 6 speed, and LSD. Xenons were a nice to have. Basically meant I had to get a grand touring NC. A nice one is in the $12k range. For a few thousand more, I got something that'll hold its value more and has a more special valve train.

Did you sell the BRZ?

Yeah sold it back in November. Sold the Genesis on Christmas Eve and picked up a 4Runner. Now I've got this too.

Hopefully that spells the end of my car buying for some time. Unfortunately both vehicles are about the same color but oh well.
