Default Long Term Owners

Just curious as to how long some of us have been around. I never keep a car much longer than 2 years but now I've had my S2000 for 6 1/2 years and 95k . I doubt I'll ever sell it. I recently picked up a 2001 BMW 330i to serve as my daily driver and I plan to put "Buttercup " out to pasture. Maybe 5k miles a year summertime use instead of the 15k plus including winters I was subjecting her to.

I've had my S2 for just over a month now. I don't typically keep my cars for over 18-24 months but wouldn't mind keeping the S2k much longer. Need to start driving it less because the other cars are getting neglected but it is so hard to not want to hop in the S2k.

6+ years. Almost 34,000 miles. It has always been a toy for me. I have thought about adding another toy, but do not want to get rid of the S. Unfortunately, that would be the only way I could add the toy I want.
