    My car last week had 29965 miles (97 red /tan F355 spyder and I was wishy washy on selling it . I have seen the market make a big come back on prices. I bought my car from a one owner guy that never drove it like he stole it. I think it is worth $8000 to $9000 more than I paid for it so the thought of making a buck is there. Here is the problem every time I drive the car I want to keep it. After my last fun drive the car now has 29998 and I know if I roll it to 30k I’m keeping it. Should I just go drive it right now and never look back or take the profit while the cars is not broken and running great. I am sure some of you went through this at each 10000 mile leap. And yes it is fun to drive this car and I have had cars with 4 times the HP. Ok BRB I have to go put 2 miles on the car.

    I felt the same way when my 355 cracked 1,000 miles about a year ago. She's got nearly 2,800 miles on her now.

    Sell it for a profit and buy another one at a great deal. Do that a few times and the car will be free..LOL

    So what you are saying is they are both hard to buy and hard to sell in a good way
