i guess it sounds kind of hipocritical, but i would probably sell the GTR if i won it. i'm not entering though. But i would use some of the funds to do forced induction on my Z.

I would sell it too even though I want it.

+1 on selling it...I wouldn't be able to afford the maintenance. I'd use the money to pay off the Z, do more mods and pay off a bit of my school loans.

OR, do an ENGINE SWAP and then part out the rest. Ruin the car, but build an awesome Z

so, it seems like the general consensus is its OK to sell a sports car you win as long as you put some of the money towards making your car better. NOT if you sell it and buy a family sedan or more practical car.

I'd trade it for a MY2012 edition, or a Dodge Caravan.

I meant the MY1985 Caravan. Hopefully one with wood paneling on the side.

In my mind this is just as ridiculous as selling it and keeping the Z.

It would be very difficult for me to sell it though. I've been wanting a GTR since I was 17 (I'm 26 now).
