I plan to keep my car for until she dies (not by car accident but drivetrain failure). I plan to keep all my OEM part for every add on I put on my car too. I'm going to make her a classic. This is part of the reason why I bought a Nismo. It's a real nice car that is and will be a nice car for a very long time.

I was going to keep my Mustang forever since it was my first car. Unfortunately it went off the road last month and hit a sign before I was able to complete the build.

I won't say never because Justin Bieber told me not to, but I don't plan on selling mine. I'm in the same boat as Dreamer. If someone offered me a billion dollars for it, I'd take that lol. You'd be a moron not to. I'm saying if someone offered me what it's worth, I wouldn't take it because its worth more to me than money.




I have sex with my car.

Not planning on selling mine, this is my first sports car and as long as I have room for her, she's staying, even though my next car will be an upgrade. I'd like to keep this around for showing me how much fun a sports car can be.

Not too sure about the 370, but I will NEVER sell my 83 280ZX. She was my 1st car. I have heard too many stories of "man I wish I would have never sold that car." So why sell it, just so I can one day say, "man I wish I never sold that car. No one will ever offer me what she is worth to me anyway.
She is getting a complete overhaul right now anyway. Once I get far enough I will start posting images of what she is going through.

With the bullshít I have been through, I'm never selling, either it will be kicked every day to start with hopefully 150k+ and die at 200k+ or it will be totaled.

My prediction: None of you will still own your car in in 10 years. 3/4 of you won't own your car in 5 years.

I will take that bet.
My car is paid off and if I need something else (say a kid comes along), I will just pick up another car I required.

I will either sell my Z someday to make room for another (sports car) or utilize my currently rented space, to store the Z and likely other cars in my future.

With all this talk about the new C7 and the 2015 625 HP Z06, my original plan of 10-15 years may go out the window.

If I was offered $30,000 for my 2009 Z, or offered a 2014 in trade I'd keep my current car as is. At $50,000 it is a goner.

30k for a 2009 and you didn't drop it like a hot potato? I didn't even get that for my 2011.................
