Ask more questions ...
My wife says Yes to Gt86, but only if we rent a new house. What should I do?
We looked at this house, but I did not like it. But like the 86 verry much. |

Lol keep the wife happy at all costs, and you too will be happy (with an 86 to boot)!

I'd rather have a car than stuck in a house I cant unload. But if you are renting find a place with a garage with enough space to play games with the car.

I would 100% agree normally, however he did say they would be renting. If that's the case, I say have fun and get the car. The grown man (with a house and kids) in me says to put the money into buying a house, as rikdrt1 is probably suggesting. Cars come and go, but there's no better feeling than owing your own home IMO.

How difficult would it be to purchase a house where the mortgage payments were actually less than what you would be paying for rent? That would sure make buying a new car a lot easier.

I wise man once told me "You can sleep in your car, but you can't drive a house"
Of course he met a nice girl, got married, and is currently selling his sports car. |

I keep saying that to myself, but my wife knows how much I love having my sports car... I'm so thankful that I'm not in a situation where I have to ever let go of this interest of mine...
Of course, it helps when my wife lets me be happy after I satisfy my responsibilities, first and foremost.
