I am not a big fan of keeping any vehicle too long, usually for fear of the car falling apart. I don't drive nearly as abusive as some of you, but I do drive hard (sometimes).

By May '01, I will have knocked a whopping $2k of principal off my S2000 loan, at which point I hope to change to yellow for free (as long as i get $30.4k for the red one).

In mid '02 would be a great time to get a blue one
