![]() Now I will move on and purchase a Porsche Cayman S or 2013 Porsche 911. I passed inspection by getting a exemption permit each year. The next major issue is that the hydraulic powered hardtop's seals go bad after around 10 years in age and they leak into the headliner, I fix this by completely draining out the fluid for $25. Oil gets caught up in this because after the car is around 12 years old the supercharger spits oil into the MAF. Note: I purchased this in 2009 for $10,500 so my total costs excluding the $75 oil changes was about $1k a year when you factor in my purchase price and resale value, not bad right? haha I must also include that during my past 3 years of ownership that this car doesn't pass NC inspection due to the MAF sensor. Now i am in my final semester in my dual-masters program and in a few months I will tell my car goodbye and sell her for $5-6k with 155k mi. This was mainly because I did a complete overhaul 3 years ago replacing all worn parts(suspension, motor mounts, drilled and slotted rotors and new pads, spark plugs, mass air flow, etc) before I started working in finance. 2) Repairs- cost $2,500 over 8 year term. 1) first car accident( rear-ended at red light) no visible … damage but the Honda Civic was almost totaled by her insurance. Owning this car through the past 8 years has been a pleasure. When I got this I was looking at Honda S2000's but my parents had an affinity towards Mercedes-Benz so we agreed on this as a nice compromise. Purchased in 2009 when I graduated highschool this was my first car ownership experience.
