The real costs of a slick ride
My car might be worth $8k to the right buyer.
I've had it for 9 years and spent more than $25k since I bought it.
I bet I have several hundreds of my own hours into it.
It doesn't have a selling price, it's my friend. Short of being homeless and hungry, I just plain wouldn't sell it. Even for enough money to get a "better" one. Or two even!
Dollars spent: $30,000
Car's value: $8000
Net loss: $22,000
