So I have come to a crossroads with this car, and I am not sure what to do. As you may know I live in an apartment complex, and it is not that bad actually. Garages are available for 85$ a month, and car ports are available for $35 a month. I have settled for open parking, and it is not that bad, except that I worry about my car a lot, because the area and the people are still unfamiliar to me. I really don't have any tools, because I couldn't fit them in my car, and I live on the third floor as well, so it is sometimes tiring going up and down. I hope to buy a house with my wife sometime late next year, and I want to have as big of a downpayment as possible. We will get 2 car garage at a minimum and possibly three, since housing is so cheap here.
But being in Texas, it is very RWD friendly, so that will probably be my next purchase. I am thinking 350Z or 330ci(If anyone wants to give some tips.) Sometimes I just don't see any reason to put money in this car. The resale value has already dropped like a rock, even with keeping it as clean as I can. The roads in San Antonio are not that great, and I get a thunk in my front right side everytime I hit something like a pothole or an unsmooth surface. I also don't have anyone to work on the car with, because I don't know anyone here. Car repairs are always a stressful thing for me, because it is my DD.
Another issue I have is that, they have automatic sprinkler systems here, that operate at night or early in the morning. Well they seem to spray the cars more than they spray the grass, and I get water droplets everywhere every morning. It is very annoying.
I am just thinking out loud here. So I guess the question is, should I spend some money on making the car more fun, or just wait for the real "sports car" like Scotty is doing?
