Message	back. It is hard to get a couple thousand over the amount back. I would bail out and parachute to the nearest dealership you like and get something more economical. It just doesn't seem as though you are mechanically inclined enough to avoid the expenses that come with these high maintenance cars. That is precisely my point at an earlier time when I stated that owning the Z was more expensive than having a new car payment, sure it was paid off but between necessary maintenance and unnecessary upgrades I spent enough to buy a 30k car outright. I learned from that mistake!!! I hope that maybe you do as well. Just remember that whatever you do to that car you will never get it back, time, sweat, blood, tears, money, none of it comes back. Is it worth it??? If yes keep it, if not sell it.
