I moved up north and didn't want to watch it get destroyed by salt, scraping the ground in our new terrible driveway, or deal with the likely frequent flooding issues from storing a rotary outside in cold winters and driving it one mile to the store.

The new 86 will still experience some of that, but I couldn't bring myself to give up on cars altogether. At least it's got an extra 1.5" of ground clearance, is 9 years newer, and doesn't have flooding concerns.
