Not sure how I missed this thread so far...

Anyhow, I shall be there... almost tempted to leave my car somewhere and just navigate for someone, would be nice to be with the group for once ;)

(Meeting with financial planner on Friday, so I'll soon have a definite "yes, go ahead and buy the GT-B/STi" or "no you're being an idiot, leave that money for the house" answer - so potentially :D :D :D or :cry: :cry: :cry: LOL)

Jump in with Taylor? I was hoping to flirt my way into another car for a change.

Well that would probably guarantee a spot fairly close the front of the pack LOL. I'd kind of assumed you'd be in with Taylor, but hey, if you're not, sure :)

Well, yes, except the whole point kind of is that he (should) know what he's talking about and ultimately I don't, really... although I'd like to think my theory about home loans being "cheaper" than car loans is a good one ;)

And as much as everyone here knows I've been at least a little disappointed with the RX since I got off my L's and stopped driving like a Grandma/scared kid and put my foot down properly for the first time, as I mentioned in the discussion on facebook the other week, my younger brother has already done the "I want new shiny everything" and now works 12 hour days with an hour and a half drive each way between home and work, and is very likely to fall asleep and drive his new shiny car off the road and kill himself before he finishes paying off his debt... I'm too lazy to put myself in that position LOL - I'm quite happy with working a normal day with relatively normal stress levels :)

Someone who actually listens to the advice of their accountant/financial adviser and then actually acts upon it. Hmm...interesting concept.

I'm a maybe for the fine print! Got a LAN Party on the Saturday, so it'll depend what time we finish packup from that. Will definitely try and make it though, coz it's going to be hit or miss as to whether I'll have the new car in time for this one!
