Very clean and right mods 1991 BMW 318iS.

I don't really regret selling anything else, and I've owned ~35 vehicles.

Well as I sit right now I can potentially make money on the car, but I project in a year or two the depreciation will hit. Buying a car so new is bound to lose alot unless it's a limited production car that's heavily sought after like a gt3.

What did you end up trading it in for?

2005 Rio Yellow S2000 with 11,000 miles
sold it for $16,000 in 2010.
Could definitely get more now.
Always missed the car after I sold it which
is why I now have an 02 Sebring Silver
which I purchased in March, 2017 with 14,800 miles on it
for $19,000

i traded on a 4 door wrangler that i lifted then drove around the country in it for 6 weeks....

this may sound dumb but i enjoy my $8k used 350Z more than that mustang.... if the mustang had aftermarket exhaust it would def have been better... stock was super quiet.

your mustang sounds ****ing awesome!!!!

Oh I remember your epic thread about the jeep, didn't one get totaled in vegas or something? That was a cool read man, wish I can do a trip like the someday.

I totally get it, and honestly the z gets too much hate around these parts, those cars are great. I was enamored with the s550 Mustangs since forever, and I liked the way they drove... but not love. In end it just had no sense of occasion and this car was going to be a weekend only car. The gt350 on the hand, awesome car.

Thanks for saying that, it does sound awesome.

I really miss my 1975 Datsun 280Z. Not that it would be worth a ton of money today but probably more than the $2500 I sold it for in 2005. It had been a salvage title due to theft recovery and I picked it up for $1100 when I was in California and had it shipped home for another $900 or so. I replaced all of the suspension bushings and installed a Tokico shock and spring kit and made my own strut tower braces.. It handled well and looked pretty good too. I also put in a set of CRX seats and some other mods I can't think of right now. I really liked that car and its the one I regret selling. Would have loved to put a Rebello engine or something with more power into it. I would think it would at least sell for $5-6000 today but who knows. Its hard to say.

'68 Camaro with a 327 sold for around $3000 20 years ago. It wasn't a perfect unicorn version but sure I could have got more if i held it.
