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?

My wife drives a 2013 VW CC and I drive a 2013 GMC Sierra, both paid for and in like new condition and home is 14 payments from being paid off, I am pretty set on my stereo and I have probably $35,000.00 invested there and I believe it would bring close to that if I were to resell it with that said the only thing that supersedes my audio is a new motocross bike every 2 years and I have to say that the bike is the only thing other than family that brings me as much enjoyment as my audio and have been doing both for 50 years.
