Anyone spend more on their system than their car?


I just signed the papers for a used Pontiac Vibe, will cost me $12,600 + tax and (almost dead)trade-in. This is a few $K less than I spent on my main system, and one of the reasons I didn't spend more is to be able to afford a new preamp sometime this spring. I'm not quite sure what else I would have bought. I do lust after the Hemi Magnums, but was determined to buy something socially responsible - I dunno, maybe if I hadn't blown so much on audio, I'd have gotten a Prius. Is anyone else not driving the car of their dreams to afford audio? Or skimped on other things that most people wouldn't to afford their system?

Uhh, I have more $$$$ in my rig than all three of my used cars !!!!
Still looking at more stuff like Bigkidz above ^ ^ ^
Nice to see everyone here got their priorities right....

Trying to be environmentally conscious, I actually don't have a car right now. Actually getting around by public transport is somewhat freeing and I never spent as much on Audio and Music before :). Otherwise I have more money invested in Hifi over the past 15 years than in cars over the past 15 years.

Of course, being environmentally conscious has it limits: I do run a tube amp and a class A power amps that waste about 95% of energy, but then something has to give for music....

More than my street cars?
Absolutely.

More than my race cars?
It's hard to beat an equation designed to humble even the rich economically.
The question should be "How many people have spent more on their audio rig than their house?"
