I figured it was around that ballpark.

I love GTR’s, but there is no way with a good mind I could justify buying one at the moment. I refuse to have a payment of that size. I know you put alot down and your situation makes sense. Since I payed my cobra off, I happen to like the luxury of not paying for a car. At this point in my life, responsibilities are paramount. And I need to focus on other things.

So… with that said… when can I get a ride in that thing?! Lmao!
