My car is gone!!!

[M35 Sport]

My 2006 M35 sport is gone. I traded it yesterday for a 2007 Ford Focus. Yes.....a Focus. My daily commute is 100 miles, and I simply did not want to pay for the gas, and maintenance anymore. So at 136K miles I decided to let it go. I come have to the point where I want to see more money in my bank account than I do literally going up in smoke down the highway. It was good talking to you guys.

It saddens me that peole have to give up their beloved cars due to politics of the administration. Here's to a brighter future where we drive what we want, not what our leaders funnel us into.

Nothing to be ashamed of. We all make sacrifices one way or the other. I almost returned my car few months back but decided to find a part-time job and keep the car.

Good Luck

Could have got a new job instead of a new car....

^^^^ Easier said than done these days

Goodluck with the new car....

How much did you actually spent on the car thus far? Other than normal maintenance i don't think this car breaks down that often. Yes, gas sucks major a** and if that's your main concern the a honda civic is a better alternative.

Having said all that i wish you the best of luck. It sucks that you have to downgrade due to your financial situation.

I own a 2004 M45 and a Ford Focus. Over the years I have had less issues with the Focus than the M. I still love my M but the Focus is an awesome little machine. Ford got that one right in my OP.

What did the dealership buy your M for?

You should have taken off the front spoiler, and sell it to me....lol.
