This is why the play is to have a cheap car as your dream car. First gen Miata my beloved ❤️🥺

Not that I can afford one yet anyway but still, achievable

My dream car is a T-top, any make/model, and afaik the only vehicle even remotely in my price range that has a T-top option and isn’t old as shit is a corvette. I priced it out well over a decade ago and it would cost more than my house did just a couple years prior..

Yep, doubt I could ever justify that even if I had that kind of money, just because of the mental money breakdown of what a car should cost relative to a house..

What’s sad is fast forward to today and just about -any- new car is in that same price range.. yet my wages never really increased by that much.. hmm..

Is a Honda Del Sol close enough? I know it’s a one-piece roof instead of a two piece, but it’s still a cheaper car with a removable hardtop.
