i have had mine for 5 years and just lately have been wanting to sell it. don't know if it's the urge to have something a bit more practical or if it's just that i've owned it for so long that i'm getting worn out... it's just that it's lowered so i scrape on everything, it is loud, there are rattles, the gas mileage isn't great, i am super **** about it so i am very picky about the paint and wash it every few days. i love the way it looks and the sound system is excellent and it's a good car but cannot tell if i would miss it when it's gone since it is a lot of work to maintain. anyone have any opinions? i am being horribly indecisive about what to do. i just don't know honestly. on one hand i think i will miss it, on another i don't think i would really. anyone has any real life experience with an fbody they sold and how they felt, or if you want to chime in on how long you've owned your car and whether or not you get sick of it from time to time, please feel free to share.

I've owned mine for 7 years and only have 31,000 on the clock. I hope to never sell it. It's also been torn apart more than its been driveable so i hope to enjoy all my hard work before I ever have to part ways with it.

I've had mine for 3 years, and I don't see mine going anywhere unless I really need to, or it wrecks. It's paid for, so I just pay $30/month for insurance on it.
It's my toy, I've never had no intentions on making a show car out of it. Some would say it looks like ****, but I've got alot of time in it, it's a ****** beast, and I'll be happy as hell when I get my T56 in it cause that's what I've always wanted.

9 years here. Bought it brand new and will probably be buried in it. I have driven it maybe 1,000 miles in the last two years because of little issues here and there, but I plan to get them taken care of soon so I can drive it. Besides, it's paid off and has been so for awhile. I can't get rid of it.

i have owned mine for 2 years and i love it, although i dont really get to drive it whole lot these days with a new baby, i do enjoy driving it to work, i did think about selling last year when i found out that my fiance was pregnant but i ended up keeping it , i dont own mine yet but my monthly payments arent much, ive put about 10,xxx on it and i hate to see the mileage add up each season.

i have only had mine for a little over a year, i bought it with only 38k on it, my intentions are to use it as my daily till i am done with college(another 4yrs) and then buy a economic car so i can mod the **** out of the t/a, so i guess what i am saying is that i will never sell mine.
