Then again, I have no idea what tax bracket you're in (and I won't ask) so everything I just said may be invalid haha.

P.S: Hang on to your wife; she's sounds like a keeper! haha

I tend to get attached to a car if I've spent time and effort on upgrades, so I assume that's holding you back somewhat. Are you going to sell or trade the vert? Make sure you can get what the car is worth and then go buy the GT500. Show some pics of the car when you get it home.
