OK,
    I'm playing with the idea of selling my scirocco and buying =
something else.  My car is a dedicated auto-x cat that rarely sees any =
street use.  On Friday my wife and I had or second child and I really =
don't see myself having time to drive or work on my car for the next few =
years.  It would also be nice to have something I could get child seats =
into for a weekend drive.  My car has a 4 point hoop right now so that =
kinda rules that out.  Adding the cost of race tires to the list make me =
think that I might really sell it.

I think at this point I would rather have a clean, pretty and fuctional =
car in the garage as a plaything than a race car.  I raced my car all of =
5 times last year and have never been really able to drive it like I =
used to after some medical problems I had a few years ago.

Some cars I'm thinking about as a replacement:
16V Scirocco
Alfa GTV6 (where to get parts?)
Volvo P1800 (where to get parts and it 30+ years old)
Porsche 944
Porsce 914

I though about a G-60 Corrado but I had really bad experience with my =
SLC and shudder to think about specific crap on a G-60 would cost.  I =
don't want a 4 door as I already have a daily driver.

Any thoughts or suggestions on this?
