new to the 986 world

SO.... heres a run down of the last 2 months. Airplane broke and had to get a new motor mount ($700) and I finally sold my car... for 500 less than what I wanted...

So where does that leave me in the hunt for a boxster? 3k. so pretty much not enough to get the wheels off a boxster. Being a highschool student whose pay is immediately put into an account to cover costs of an airplane (which I cant sell until june) leaves me in a pretty annoying situation. Without a car, and without enough money to buy the only car I sold mine to get.

Any thoughts?

What you're saying doesn't make much sense. You "finally" sold your car? Why? I thought you said you sold your car long ago--before you lost the Boxster you wanted.

And you don't yet have your private but you own an airplane?

cheaper to buy an airplane to get your private than rent one. I have an entire spreadsheet explaining it if you want.
And they guy never came to pick up the car way back when... been trying to sell it ever since.

What airplane do you have? What's the TBO? An airplane has to be flown at least a few hundred hours a year in order to bring the hourly operating cost within range of an FBO's hourly rental. And you were complaining that you'd be without a car, and unable to get to the airport. so,since you didn't find a Boxster to buy, why did you sell?
