It’s an investment

Kinja'd!!!

I mean, I am dumb. But at least it’s dumb with a high resale value.

You’re enablers.

my wife alrady said yes to this or a Boxster or Cayman. This is after we figure out what car for our Minivaning. (Leaning towards Q7 3.0T now)

It’s an investment in your happiness, which is the best kind to make. That’s not dumb.

My friend has a crazy S2KCR and it’s much better than a Miata! You won’t be sorry.

Congrats!

I wish I lived somewhere I could justify it, the PNW is not exactly great convertible country, especially sharing road time with motorcycles.

No, it’s not dumb! Sure, having a pile of cash is nice, but the pile of cash can’t spin a high-lift VTEC cam all the way to 9k.

Did they not sell the more ordinary looking actual first-gen in the US? I thought I remember seeing one for sale up here (Canada) a while back...

The original RHD Prius had a similar body but with a different powertrain. Appearance-wise, the bumpers, lights, etc. are different from the version that eventually got exported.

Actually it’s a salvage, front end impact afaik :/ only 64k but needs new rear tires (2010). the price was right (including shipping) and I think these have stopped depreciating, obviously the mint ones are astronomical. The worst realistic scenario isn’t bad enough to not take a chance.

Actually the worst realistic scenario is the aftermarket. Brb deleting google
