It really looks like she got the short end of the stick here. She lost her car to get yours, she let you have fun while she has to carry the kid for 9 months and you're hung up on whether you should sell the car even after dumping that much money that the civic was probably worth?
Let's look at the net result, you sold your wife's car that paid for parts for your vehicle and you have a kid. Priorities much?
Sounds like a ME ME ME story and the wife who sacrificed to keep you happy.
You damn well better do what she needs you to support her through this time. The only thing you lost is maybe a few hours of sleep over those heated arguments.
Everyone calling her a bitch without knowing the full story, she's most likely hopped up on hormones from having a kid. I'm not letting the FR-S in question cloud objectivity here, I'm just going by what is in the OP's post.

I think you got it all wrong from
my end...I am in no way complaining about my wife and me having our first kid lol I am stoked beyond compare!! And I only drive the fr-s when we are both together...I'm a simple guy I drive a muddy old 1991 xtra cab Toyota pickup with 220,000 miles on it...i got this car to fulfill my manly need for all thing automotive and at the same time make my wife happy...She wanted the car as bad as I did...she WAS driving a 6 speed manual civic si before and yes I find it sexy that she wanted the manual fr-s too...she drives like a princess all dainty and slow but I don't know many 5'11" blondes that drive stick, hunt, fish, cook, clean, and hold a 4.0 in college so I would never trade my life for the single one...had my fun back in the day but now that i found my ultimate keeper... Had to lock it down... And now I get to have a kid it is AWESOME...she has already promised to get me the new supra once it comes out and she is done with dental hygiene school...and yes it is a matter of budget...I am currently the only breadwinner and I have bills for 3 now so I am working on ways to make this work...purchased this when I wasn't expecting more bills and the expenses that come with a little one...maybe should have waited to modify but I'm one of those people that likes to do everything in the beginning, not slowly add on... That was my bad but overall I think you've gotten the wrong impression of me... I'm not trying to whine and I am so happy to be having a kid... I was just looking for suggestions
