Well the longer that the dealer takes to get me a quote, the more likely I am to change my mind.

Change your mind about options or whether to buy a M3W?

HAha YES Ken! in that order....
Back when Morgan had an 8 year waiting list, I don't know how people dealt with it. But since I don't have a deposit down, i'm still a free man (not an order number) to paraphrase Patrick McGoohan

If you're not irreversibly hooked, I suggest you bail. Why buy a relatively unreliable toy of limited utility if you're not totally addicted? Mine was a totally irrational decision but after driving the M3W I really was compelled... had no choice. If you're not at that point...

I definitely was hooked, but then now I look at the snow, then I look at the 5 bikes and the summer car languishing in the garage...
We shall see how I feel.

Surely the snow is no surprise, lol. The bikes are even more useless in the snow than the MMC, and I know you're not going to get rid of the bikes. As for a Summer car...you've driven the M3W...what beats that as a a summer car? I've driven pretty much every exotic (and less than exotic) car and IMNSHO, nothing beats the M3W as a summer car (or Spring, or Fall or clear roaded Winter...)

True, the MX-5, which would then be the SECOND most impractical car in the world, would probably go after one summer with the Morgan.

I'm sure its just the buyers remorse thing kicking in, second guessing myself is all. Luckily my wife is now in the "just buy the damn thing" stage.

MX5 impractical? I drove one year round for three years. They're great! Throw some Blizzaks on her and rock the snow! Lol.
