Seriously, you aren't helping my disease and I don't have the room right now.

The RX7 was the final straw since it is in my home state. Not cool.

Happy to have helped. 

Car looks clean in the photos. Hopefully it’s really that good and goes to a good home.

If there are enough You Need This threads, that problem will take care of itself.

Although I suspect a couple of them have been borderline trolls on the part of the GRM staff :)

Hang on, this is how Bring A Trailer started. Is there a long term plan at work?

Are you telling me that I don't need a twin V6 engined garden shed?

I have had the thought "he needs his own separate thread; I always like looking, but since NONE of em are blue collar affordable, the tend to tie up the for sale thread laugh

I have two houses with two garages. Each garage is full. Each driveway is full. The HOA at one of the places is sending me letters. At the other place, the city is going on a towing binge and grabbing everything on the street with an expired registration. Lots of stuff shows up at city auctions real cheap.

There are weekends when I would rather do something with the dogs or just lie on the couch than work on a car project. As I get older it gets worse.

On the days that I am broke, people want to give me broken cars for free, or at least sell them to me for beer money. Plenty of free boats out there too. Lotus Europas aren't free, but can still be had cheap.

I am pushing a few limits here.

Me with the new GRC, along with the Celica race car and WRX, plus Crosstrek.  And then seeing "hey check out this cheap Miata..." after building a bit of savings back up again.

there is something to be said about this...  at one point a few weeks ago every single one of my cars had something small wrong with it.  none of the issues ended up being that big to fix but one of them was a small exhaust leak and while it took only about an hour to fix, moving things around in the garage, getting the quickjacks out, putting the car up in the air, etc, etc... means that even the most meanial car project is a 1/2 day if not longer.

My question is why aren't these in the cars for sale forum?
