I made the mistake of selling my AE86, I will not do that again. I am keeping this for as long as I am alive. not even joking.

Until it falls apart or becomes a money pit/unreliable.

Great car, probably won't get another one.

I kept my first car for 12 years... And I somewhat ruined it by adding toooo much POWER ( couldn't keep up with the maintenance) So Ill keep it as long as I can, then get a second DD and turn this strictly into an Auto-X racecar.

Once I get my grimmy little hands on a twin?
I plan to keep it until it falls apart, and even then, a rebuild would be tempting.

I plan on holding onto mine for a while. My fiance has a newer Jetta so if I ever needed to haul around more than two people I could just use her car. If we ever had kids, I would still keep my FR-S. I have no intention of ever driving a van or an SUV and she's perfectly ok with that.

Other than the space issues with this car, I am 100% satisifed with it, even as a DD.

Never ever. I hope I will never resort to selling or getting rid of it.

I'm planning on keeping mine till I pay it off and get another cool car, then retire the FR-S to be a weekend driver with some light mods and then hold on to it until it's a collectors item lol.

I'll have this car forever. I'll end up getting a Challenger, 370Z, or RX-7, (or whatever else comes out that's cool) but I'm gonna continue working on my BRZ for as long as I can.

i sell cars when the maintenance/repairs starts to cost more then the value of the car, so i expect that this should last quite a long time.
