My wife would say this car costs me too much. It is a good thread because it makes me accountable for the so called luxuries. So here goes.

Off course paid too much in the first place for my 2001 Base box 2.5 years ago and it had 30k miles. Now has 40k miles. Will not disclose purchase price coz we pay more up here for P cars. Got $3k off the asking price.

All work except oil changes, filters done by my indy shop:

coolant flush and Porsche antifreeze $300
cv refurbishing $1000
spare used rims and blizzaks $400
new set of a/s tires $1200
install IMS Guardian $1000
idler arm pulley, accessory belt $1000
just ordered two new snow tires $600
oil filters, air filters etc about $150

Total $5650 yikes...

Still worth the price of admission.
