Re: Building it up only to let it go - those who've jumped ship. *LONG*

I've been off the boards for a while and haven't made Reading. Currently I've been in the process of an engine refresh, steering rack replacement and possible repaint. When you're doing this yourself the costs are much more reasonable.

What yt said, it's all about priorities. While I enjoyed my z4 it was still missing something so I'm moving onto the route of a real daily driver while making the svx my weekend project. The svx isnt a terrible car to work on as long as you have the patience. If you accept it for what it is you won't be disappointed, but as technology evolves there will be many faster and better handling cars. I personally don't plan on giving mine up.
