i'd give up any thing, especially a car for another degree. with a 2nd ba in engineering, you can buy a s2000 when u grad.

If this is something you seriously want to do, then you'll have to make a lot of sacrifices in stuff you do. That usually includes going out for recreational time (movies, dinner, etc) and honestly...probably your car too.

There are a lot of reliable DD cars out there that you could probably pay cash for and not have a car payment.

Good luck to you! The reward that you'll get when you're done will pay off and you can get yourself another nice car then.

I'm in the same boat, cutting down a lot of expenses to go back to school too. I know how it feels to try to cut back on things to keep the S2k, best of luck!

You all have smarter priorities than I do. I sold my S2K to go racing more.... Now that I think of it, if I spent more time in school I could afford to go racing more.
