first world problems

eh in atlanta there are just as many porsches as there are corvettes, camaros, mustangs lol

when i look at it, the camaro and corvette have the same engine and they perform almost identical, but the corvette looks better to me. however is it worth to pay 10-15k more lol

Yeah, I'm considering going to one car for the time being. The initial thought for selling was that the Z is still worth something right now and if I get rid of it it'll be a nice addition to our savings to use for a new house we're thinking about in the next 18-24months. It's not like I HAVE to sell it for financial reasons, it was my responsible side trying to tell me it's a nice chunk of change to have/invest versus just continuing to depreciate in my garage since I don't have as much time to drive it.

BUT then I drive it and I'm like holy hell, how am I going to get by with just my TL, especially after a crappy week on the road at client sites. If I do sell the Z I realistically won't have another toy in the stable for another 2-3 years as well (again trying to be responsible). So now I'm just thinking, maybe my enjoyment/sanity is worth just keeping it. That was the whole reason for buying the Z in the first place.

I think if I were selling to switch to another toy, I wouldn't be as reluctant but selling and driving a family sedan only makes me think twice. Totally first world problems.

married people problems lol. i don't think i should buy any car anymore. i should probably lease because usually after 2 years of owning a car i get tired of it and want something better.

but in your case, if you don't have to sell it, keep it. who knows maybe if they kill z the price will go up. it's almost 2017 and there is no news of a new z. so you never know

That's what everyone has been saying haha. I'm a little hesitant about the dual tranny thing they use, but the price is perfect for my needs.

I guess that can be said about any car company.

Fords break supposedly
Every Chevy rattles
Dodges just fall apart
Mazda rusts leaving the lot
Honda is insanly boring now
Toyota is beige

Peanut butter with a few sunflower seeds sprinkled on top, kinda like the icing on the cake for the mice.

Much easier than buying traps and poisons.
