thanks for the response untamed...and to answer your questions:
-yes i live at home, but will be moving out in a little over a year.
-my daily is extremely reliable(93 crapalier w/ 60k miles...my grandma's car)...and while i hate the POS, its gunna be around a while and I LOVE the comfort and reliability it represents.
-only have a minimal amount of college credits but currently in a lucrative position(police dispatcher) which offers a step-up to the profession im interested in pursuing as a career(police officer)
I've gone 8 months without a nice, good-looking, and fast car and it really got to me so being without SOMETHING is going to be difficult. I do have a decent amount of money saved up and (realistic goal) plan on purchasing a house(out-of-state) when i move out next year...i'll deal with not having something cool when i have a mortgage, but until then I wont be able to stay away
BTW the new owner's previous ride was a c5 that he built a custom twin t67 turbo setup on, so i have no doubt that my 'vert will have a nice life after me
