I have around 60k on mine, and it doesn't even matter to me. Suspension is completely redone, rear end is redone and built to the hilt, motor will be completely redone/built, and she'll always have a spot in the garage when she becomes a garage queen. My toy forever.

I have some rock chips on my hood from the highway, and I don't even care bc once the motor is all setup, shes getting that same hood/bumper as SoldierGT...
I just don't get why some people put thousands of dollars into their toys, get sick of them and then wholesale them off just to buy another toy to dump thousands into. I bought exactly what I wanted rather than something to "keep me happy" for the time-being. No matter what way you cut it, cars are one of the worst investments you can possibly make. With that being said, why not build it to how YOU WANT IT and keep it as your dime-piece? /my .02

My thoughts exactly. I just hit 84K and I was like
, but...I plan on keeping this car for years to come and riding it til it dies. I always keep the cars I have until they die or give them to an immediate family member. I can't just get rid of my cars like that just to spend it on another thing and make more payments and such. Cars are horrible investments, lose more and more monetary worth every day.
