Happy Valentines Day bump! 
Anyone want to talk me out of selling my car to buy a project car like a 3000GT VR4, BMW Z3 Coupe, or a Celica GT-Four?

I'll volunteer.
Project car = MONEY PIT.

OK, "project car" might be the wrong terminology. What I'm thinking is if I'm going to have problems with the car that I own (the guys at galpin know me far too well), y not have a cheaper car that'll give me more bang for buck? (All puns aside). I dread the day that my warranty runs out. I just can't justify shelling out $300, 400, 500 for mods that I won't be able to feel.
I could theoretically buy a VR-4 for $10k, have cheaper insurance, have plenty of money for mods that will give a better return than anything aftermarket for the RX-8, throw the remaining few thousand dollars I have left over into savings and then smoke RX-8s left and right.

幹他媽!
1) if you "know" definitively that your 8 is a lemon, then YES- it's time to ditch it, because you obviously don't want to keep a car that's going to break down and keep costing you like a money pit...
2) if another part of your agenda is to "smoke" the rx-8 then YES- it's also time to ditch it, because you obviously don't love the car anymore... <shrugs> at least let those of us who still love it enjoy our rides.
