Why buy a car to store it?

Yeah, OK.. I really do get it. I have a car I store, too, but it's an 80's Benz and they salt our roads CONSTANTLY during the winter. I can't predict the future, but I'm not banking on my FR-S being worth a ton of dough in 30 years so I'm enoying it year-round now. Then again, I won't be worth much in 30 years either...

If you've got an 80s car, especially a merc it's going to rust from the inside out. Storage had better be really dry
