    lol, cars are like computers: You have to have a spare one to keep them running.

    being broke for your car & living for your car is never a good thing.

    Hopefully that will be over with by the end of the week. Trust me, I am sick of it. I made the plunge to spend the money to get it running, and running correctly 100% with the full ability to monitor. This bitch better not break.

    Both of my current 3S's (along with my past 94VR4) have been ULTRA reliable. The ONLY downtime I can recall is with the Spyder with a shorted wire to ground (to the coil pack) that cost me $800+ and about 10 days....luckily I had a Jeep as a backup then....

    I take care of them (and I purchased WISELY) and they take care of me (Stealth - 103K+, Spyder - 105K+)....
