I've Just Inherited $20,000 dollars and I'm so torn. i've already got an '89 Rx-7, bone stock with only 86,000 miles on it, and now MAZDA has gone and released the RX-8. What are they doing to me!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? So now I'm like do I want a sweet *** 2004 Mazda Rx-8 or do I want a sweet *** 1989 Mazda Rx-7 with $20,000 dollars under the hood. It's killing me!!!! If anyone has any input I'm up for anything.

It seems to me as though there should be more than just those two choices.

That's the best advice you could get. Build a car slowly with your extra cash.

Screw investing! We could all be toast tomorrow. Blow it all on booze and broads!

WAAYYYY Long time ago: Back around 1984 I got the first of my Nuke Power School Bonus's from the Navy. Around 25K. I had a fast car and loud stereos. Wish I would have invested that money instead......
