It's always an interesting topic to see what people would have done differently.

Sometime I wonder that the thing I do today, will I think back in 10,20,30 years and think I could have done it differently ,better even.

the cars i bought that i didnt keep were my dd's.. :ugh2: other than the one civic i leased, i paid cash for all 17 of them. :facepalm:

nismo- my bro had a silvia way back when those were new. :tup: after 5yrs ownership, he was ready to trade it in for another more practical car and the dealer would not take it...

so he sold it to his friend for $100. :icon17: that's j-land for you.

I wish I could buy a Sylvia for 100 :( always liked that car and it has great potential.... However they are overpriced in the used market in US

yah, it was definitely a cool ride. one of my uncles is a silvia fan and has bought all the gens since 1975 (?) when they were first introduced. up until about 7yrs ago when he first got a non-silvia car, the skyline 370GT which is the G37C.

wat i shouldve done was spent a little more and got a S4 avant and kept it for 10yrs along with my G35C. that would've been a huge cost savings.

Wow you change them often. I am buying my 3rd this summer. That's 4 cars total in 6 years. :tup: but I'll have 3 at once.

:tup: sounds good, mr. zman. i hope you get wat you really want and just keep it for a long time.

ive owned 4 cars at a time so i kept rotating the older dd and kept my hobby car maybe 3-4yrs. it was fun and all, but wouldve been much better had i bought a car that was a tad over my budget, yet kept it longer.

i think having 2 cars for yourself is nice and economical if one of them is a hobby car. 3 cars is better... but 4 cars
and above could become a pita to maintain.

lol, guy in the next office saw my space and started cleaning up too. :icon17:

Well the z ill keep for longer. My scion is a lease so it's going away dec 2013. I'm buying a cheaper used dd this summer and plan to keep that 3-4 years so its not necessarily one of the cars I want. I'll probably buy a nice dd in 2014 and keep that until it dies lol
