yeah I was contemplating the same thing but the problem with that is we dont get **** for our evos now and selling it in this market is going to be hard unless you sell it dirt cheap. plus mine is almost paid the **** off so I'm just going to keep it!

I'm very attached to my cars usually and i keep saying to my self this is forever, then day comes and something new is out and i want it.


I'm keeping my EVO and STI for now, but i really want a 2009 GTR or 2006 E46M3 for summer.

Once I get mine I will be keeping it forever, I haveany plans for it and getting rid of it early isn't one of them.

Mine is my DD, but I'm certainly not nice to it most of the time.

I'm sure I will keep it for awhile, well into being out of the military and having a much better paying job.

When I went to JAG to draft my will before my deployment the JAG guy there looked at me like I was crazy when I wanted to leave my 40k car to a 4 year old

I'll drive mine foreer unless they come out with a diesel version, then I might trade it in. A decent sized diesel with a turbo and propane injection would make for a really good car. The amount of power diesel trucks can make is astounding and I can see that technology easily crossing over into a smaller car. The handling part is what would scaremost people and the engineers. Diesels typically weigh a lot more than the gas motors. I know, I'm not right.

I hope to keep my car forever although it has essentially made me go broke as I am a college student and only work part-time because of my school schedule. Once I'm done with school and working full time I will try to accomplish my goals with this car meaning a built engine, suspension work, repaint, etc. Basically I want to keep my car long enough to make it track worthy while still being a car that can be driven on the street, no gutted interior stuff.

Yup, I'm keeping mine forever. I sold a car that I had tons of blood sweat and cash in and I regret every second of it. Won't happen again! I have the same in this one. Long term I plan to get another one!
