that's either $2400 or $1200 so $1200 dif for 12,000 miles
if that is a make or break deal for you, then take your pick, or some other vehicle in between
of course, walking is cheaper, what's a ride worth anyway?
for some fuel cost is inconsequential ... just saying
pay to play is just living how you want, with what you want

i think it just depends on your perspective. when you put it like that, maybe. how i see it is a little different though. i make a finite number of dollars per year. if car a gets 20mpg and car b gets 30mpg then car b will let me buy the car and go to 3 or 4 more track days per year or buy a complete suspension or turbo kit every three or four years.
