Well I am glad CP could come through again. I have to remind me wife while this is a nice car, it's not a collector's car and never will be. It doesn't work like that. It's modifications make is more performanced based that most GTs from this year but that's simply it. Her dad is selling it because it doesn't get enough use. I plan on using it.
I hate to admit this but I am kind of a nerd in real life, so I did some math. My commute is 14 miles one-way. 28 miles per day. This comes to 140 miles per work week. This comes to 7280 miles per year. It's 4 miles one-way to the gym. If I lift 4x per week, that's 32 miles per week. This comes to 1664 miles to the gym each year. Total is 8944 miles between work and the gym for the Mustang. Factor in some cruising or a few road trips and we'll probably put on about 12k per year. We can use the wife's civic for everything else and load the miles on it since she'll need a new car next. /nerd alert |

Completely agree with the sentiment to daily drive it without hesitation.

On the same vein, I bought a very low mile E30 M3 from an old lady. I Mean pristine, but as soon as it saw some "hard" miles it started to leak everywhere, miss and was breaking all over the place. Drive them how they are supposed to be driven. And smile every time you're pumping gas, because you know what next. |

As to not clog up Guru's thread. Took a snap of the old Celica today walking back from baseball workouts.
She's not a fast car but she was bought 10 years ago for something semi-sporty, good handling, good mileage and would last me a long time since I was 19 years old. Never thought I would have kept this car this long but she still looks pretty good. |
