Don't discount it. I planned to buy a Viper or a Z06 when I was a Junior in highschool. Then in my last year of college, I narrowed it down to the Z06. Then the last 1/2 year I got on the forums and began researching more and more and was certain I wanted a Z06.

Sure, most people on the forums talked a lot of ****, etc. about how I would never buy anything, on and on, but I'm the one laughing now.

Just because something is 5 years off doesn't mean you can't be serious about it and put things in place to make it happen. I wish I had taken more time to spruce up my credit. As it was, I was low 700's with no car-credit history. That made securing financing a bit tougher for me. However, my WS6 had a T56 transmission, which made the switch to the TR6060 all the easier. When I bought the WS6, the Viper and 'Vette had T56's, so I wanted to learn how to manage THAT transmission, as each manual I have driven has its little quirks. It served me well.

Anyway, my point is, 5 years is nothing, and don't let anything come between you and your dreams.
