Up to 112,000 + miles. If the trans goes one more time, the car is gone. Otherwise, it's 250,000 miles or bust!

I'm in it for the long haul. I'll stop commuting in it if gas gets to around $8 a gallon before mileage and age force me into another car, but I won't sell it.

I'm going to keep her forever. It's in good condition who knows maybe someday these cars will be worth a little bit with the almighty ls4 under the hood -__-

I am staying although I am done modding it. I just paid it off so now I own it, so it's not going anywhaere. Right now, I am actually looking for another project car. Thinking of a nice 80's firebird/camaro or Mustang.

Im 90% in. If I decide not to keep the car, it would only be if someone with a G35 Coupe offers me a trade?

Saw a beautiful G8 GXP this moring and I'd trade in a heart beat. Those wheels are really nice!
A old man was driving it with his wife. They had to have been in their 70's lol
