Well, I did it. I sprang for the KORE/Quest HR series coilovers.

I don't mind saying I'm freaking out a little. Because it's a lot of money and it's going to be so much fun

I'm alternating between "oh gads, what have I done" and "Yaayy!"

Anyone else feel that way when they make a big purchase they have been saving up/waiting for?

ive never made any real big purchases...im only 18.

but when i spend over 100 on something im like that. like my snowboard package was around 300.. and it was real hard at first so i was kinda scared. i got the hang of it though and am glad i went through with the purchase. my biggest purchase though was when i bought a sound system for my 85 accord. close to 1k after everything. it was WELL worth it after i plugged everything in tyhou.

buyers remorse is a terrible thing... always look to the bright side though.. with coil overs you will have the car sitting and handling just the way you want.

it's not remorse exactly. I think you have to not like what you bought to have buyer's remorse, don't you? I guess I'm just weird about money. I'm not used to having very much of it and now that I'm married and we have 2 incomes in the house, I have more money than I'm used to having, but I still freak out when I make big purchases, if that makes sense.

Yes, Virginia, being poor sucks. But I guess I'm not poor anymore. And I don't know how to feel about that.
