No, not that itch, the doctor gave me medicine for that...
The itch for a new car.
I just bought this damned Jeep 6 months ago. And I honestly love my Jeep. But with all my motorcycles in various stages of disassembly / re-assembly, and not having driven anything even remotely powerful since I got rid of the S4, the 'sports car' itch has come back to get me.
I don't have the space, nor can I afford to get another car right now, otherwise I would probably be sourcing an M Coupe right now...
I really need to fix / sell everything in my garage and update my job so I can have a toy again...

S5! Unless you have little ones at home.
Keep the projects though! At least the blue Yamaha.

I love my truck, it's big, drives over stuff and has taken me to some of the most beautiful places in America, but I miss the Mustang. Every time I'm on a winding mountain road, my heart aches.

Lol, no S5's for me. The V8 drinks too much oil and the V6sc is too much for a secondary toy. If I got another Audi it would either be an RS4 or RS6.

Its terrible, I don't even have fun mountain roads to drive on (at least relatively close) but I still just miss driving anything with pep. I mean the Jeep is a blast to drive and the coolest thing without doors, but if I catch a strong enough breeze on the highway I can rev high enough to keep it at 65mph...

I really wish I could. I should have sourced and RS4 when I bought my S4, would have been such a better choice, but I had to have a warranty (for some reason that was actually a deciding factor, even though I void EVERY SINGLE WARRANTY EVER!

Last time I had that "itch" the doctor could not cure, my bank account did.

I would be more inclined to get something like this though:
My father has a base Z4 and its a blast, this has double the power...

When purchasing a new vehicle, it was between my truck and a Jeep. I thought the Jeep was "too fun" and not practical enough for my needs, haha.
My friends always complain about how slow I drive on freeways. It's not that I'm going slow on purpose, I really can't go that fast.

Yea, REALLY trying to not bank account something right now. I think if I add one more vehicle to the property the HOA will kick me out. 2 more months till the roommates move out and Ill have some more free space (just none of it is in the garage).

I like the blue, and I like the red interior, just not together.

I know that feel... I was looking into trading in my Wrangler for a BRZ today. Trade in value for the Jeep is just a few grand under the price of a slightly used BRZ. It's way too tempting.
