Sell the car. Buy yourselfs another make. Its quite obvious that no amount of typing by us is going to convince you guys otherwise. I also understand that its good therapy for y'all to wail and have us wail back. I know, I once spent an afternoon at a Nissan site doing just this after my decrepit 200sx died on me.

So wail away, let it all out, and Good luck on your Bimmer or whatever.
