looks like I might be selling, just horrible Options

[Batman722]

I am getting divorced (A very good thing) I have been seperated for about 6 months. My soon to be ex-wife took the new Jetta when she left and said she wanted it. Now she doesn't want the Jetta and wants the Celica. After all the work and time and love I have put into the Celica I don't want to give it up. We had a meeting with my attorney today and the likely course is if we can't agree on the cars, they will both be sold and the debt/profit would be split. Both cars are in my name and I have a loan for the Jetta (I owe about 8K) and the Celica is paid off. She doesn't want the car payment.

I am at a loss for words. I don't know what to do...

Batman722,

I hope you well in the proceedings as I am sure this is a difficult time for you. Although I can't help you at all, I do however want to add my small 2 cent comment.

From my understanding of the situation, I was wondering if you knew why she wants your Celica?

Maybe she wants the Celica not because she wants to drive it but she knows you would feel very bad at having to sell something she knows you love. In other words, it is her way of "payback" during this divorce proceedings.

This is because I fail to see why she wants the Celica when she can have the Jetta (assuming they are of the similar value). It would seem to be that it is not a money question relating to the Celica.

If this is the case, there may be a way to discuss with her (via her attorneys) to keep the Celica with you.

Obviously, the above is coming from a person who does not know you or your situation or all the facts. The above can be only one of many conclusions. For all I know, she may be a Celica nut like the rest of us.

You are the best judge of the situation.

Good luck.
