What you don't want to have happen

[RandallNeighbour]

You're in good company with throwing money at an occasionally driven sports car. I stopped counting dollars in after $30k for my 1997 Boxster, purchased for $15,500 in 2004 (all in I'm at 45k or more now),

Now I can't sell it or I will realize the loss. What's it worth on a good day, $8500?

I just gotta drive it until the 2nd motor blows or the tranny craps out and then pass it to someone as a roller and start saving up for the next sports car.

Wow... This probably isn't a record amount, but it's definitely up there. At this point (if I were in your shoes) even if the most catastrophic thing happens, well, might as well...
