your tale reminds me of my first wife
Poorly thought that one out. Lost everything, not to mention about four years of my life. Ran off with a lawyer when i was in Vietnam.
As for the Cobra thing: i wanted one for most of my life. My particular Replica has given me and my son more memories than we could ever hope to have had any other way. I drive it just about every day. I get soaked, sweated, dripped on, sunburnt, smell of exhaust, and have spent a fortune on upgrades and modifications.
But then i don't boat/fish/hunt/golf/etc, all i have time for is my interest in cars, esp the one in my garage.
Some day i will have to hang up my keys. I want to walk into the sunset knowing i did it.
My first wife i think has been married since about 6 more times. Some relationships are doomed to certain failure. As was yours with your Replica.
Either one wants the librarian with glasses, or the augmented exotic dancer. Both entail compromises.
Wish you well, sincerely,
