Default How long are you planning on keeping your S2000?

Was initially thinking I'd keep it until I got bored (1-3 more years... making 5-7 years total).

But now thinking maybe I'll just keep it and add a luxury GT coupe (335/M3/S5/911) in a few years.

When the S2000 gets down to $10k, I think it'd be more fun to keep it for nice summer days.

What are your plans?

I'm keeping my car until it dies. And when it does, I'm going to fix it and drive another 250k miles.

I'm keeping the car until the wheels fall off. It'll turn into a weekend driver as soon as its paid off (<1 year), but that's just so it'll last longer.

I'm at the crossroads,the lease is up in August and I'm getting paperwork in the mail from American Honda asking me what to do.

So here's what I think;if the new Accord is 300hp and SH-AWD(highly unlikely),I'll make the Accord my next car

If not I'll do an MY07 S2000

I was initially thinking of trading it in for a Lotus Elise.

But now that my car is behaving properly again, I remembered why I love it to death. I'm planning a crazy build for the next 18 months. Should be good . Btw, I'm keeping it NA so the "fall apart" part won't come as early. I'm keeping this car forever. I'll probably purchase a scion or honda fit in 2-3 years to keep this car "fresh".
