Default Grr..bloody cars!

Ok I hope Im not alone with this problem.

Basically I am as hopeless as a woman (no offence...) when it comes to my car and my finances towards it. I would love a kick **** tough street 6. So I had this glorious plan of going to JMM and getting a nice package.

But everytime I get my heart set on something, someone always says "why?". And then I get thinking...why on gods name would I pour thousands of $$ into a car that I might only have for a couple of years anyway. And I know ill never see any of the money back.

Im at uni for another 2 years min...im working for ford for 12 months (hopefully more) and I am earning a much better wage than my poo'ey pizza job.

So what should I do? I love my current car..but I really want a V8 now, so I think ill start saving towards that so that in 3-4 years I can have a Au3 Xr8 or hopefully even a T-series (2 or 3 would do).

But then on the other hand thats means I have to drive my car around now while all my friends have better ones...my car isn't a shitter, but there are so many things I want/could do to it.

This sounds so stupid..but does anyone else go through this?? Its painful.

/rank over....i think....
