$300 for rings?? Pshhh...I grabbed a piece of scrap titanium at work one day, spent 2 lunch periods and a few breaks of work, and machined our wedding bands.
The engagement ring, OTOH...Pink diamond in a Claddaugh setting. The diamond came from a ring I found at the the local pawn shop. I used that gold, as well as the gold from a ring my mother gave me, and had the ring made to my specs. Total cost on the engagement ring...$400.
I have no advice about the car...just saw a chance to brag about making our wedding bands.
