I hope you guys don't take this as a brag thread.People enjoy spending money in different ways.We never take vacations,spend money foolishly buying stiupid things and we both work hard. We just happen to be a family that loves cars and a dog or 2.

Don't you think we are all car lovers here. I don't think it is bragging on your part.....I think it is envy on my part. I wish I had the space to have a second car, cause believe me we would. Like you said, some people own boats, RV's, take vacations....we have cars. It is just our passion.

Hey, you work hard for your money so you can spend it on things that make you happy. If your hard work and talent get you what you want and others are jealous, oh well. I say good for you, most of us don't work because it's fun, we work because we have to. If we're lucky we get to buy more than just the necessities. So good luck finding the 'Green' car. I hope to see both it and the 'Black' car someday. Maybe after my busted butt heals up.

No way. $1200 at the most. I'm certain it once had rust on one of its right-rear lugnuts.
