I figure it costs at least fifty cents a mile just for gas and tires. Only after that it starts to get expensive.

Still less cost than a new Accord for the same time/miles. Which would you rather arrive in?

When a day at a baseball game can cost $40 and a concert can cost $100 or more, I consider burning a tank of gas thru my 928 a bargain. It's an awful lot of smiles for 50 or 60 bucks.

About to install the 4th 5spd tranny, and never looked at the cost, just the thrill of the ride!

Or in your case, the 'terror' of the ride.

Hmmmmmm....mine is about $12 per mile. Maybe I'm having too much fun wrenching (not wenching-my wife is happier ) & need to drive it more?

Lets see; driving vs. wrenching - does anyone else here have this illness?

Nope thats how much I've spent SINCE I bought the car....... I didn't count the $11,500 I paid to Devek to fix the car when I bought it, since I consider that part of the purchase price.....IF I counted that minus the $4k purchase price I'm at $1.67 a mile...... so in theory I paid $15,500 when I bought the car....

I can't think of another car I could have for the total amount I have invested that would be anywhere near as much plus a car I can drive on trips to just about anywhere & not even counting the cool factor.... Sure there are cheaper cars that are "faster" and luxury cars that are "nicer"...other cars that are more exotic....but none that have it all!!

I can get you the names of the accountants that worked for Refco, WorldCom and HealthSouth....they'll let you show your wife a PROFIT!!!

OR - use that "wife logic". i.e. - "Honey, look how much I SAVED at the mall!"
