is it worth it ? to much of a philos. quere.

I say for $42 K OTD .. now way. Ill take a 135i , a new STI or EVO X and clean the clock of a SRT in a flat out drag race, road course, brakes or my favorite, playing following the leader using rush hour traffic as a moving high speed chicane.

I can say the same in ref to my own cars (I have a 06 STI as well)
Is my M3 worth $74 K or my M5 worth $ 92K HELL NO !!!!

It comes down to the the ego vs the id conflict and the decision almost always comes down to the id because as my wife loves to say
"its not what I need its what I want
Thought processes like car purchases can very opaque in our minds thusly making them seem translucent and viable but in the end the car begins to feel just like any other car, especially if used daily, and the worth can decrease in your cognicence thought.

The SRT Chally woule be a great buy at $32K along w/ a 500 ln diet. However that will not happen
