I dont understand people who buy cars to just sit in the garage cuz they worry about resell value. If you cant enjoy it to the fullest (when you really want to) then it's not worth it and a waste of $$$ IMO.
Now go out and get some snows on that bad boy and drive it!!!!
JK...

JK...That is why I put quotation marks around exotic. I don't really consider it that but some do. I had reservations about posting this question, but i did want to get opinions. If no one else is worried about the miles then there is no reason for me to be. Since we just got about 20"s of snow here in NY, it isn't leaving the garage anytime soon anyways.
This car is an absoulte blast to drive, I am smiling everytime I get in it. I don't have this car because I want to prove how "impotent"(correct spelling) I am, I have it because I have always wanted one and now I am lucky enough to be able to afford and enjoy it. Thanks for all the opinions and I am glad to see everyone enjoying their cars to the fullest

You drive the car when you feel like driving it and don't worry about the other crap. Because you weren't the original owner on that car, you are way,way ahead and shouldn't worry about losing $. There's no question a "low" mileage car with good history makes for a better resale but by how much? Usually not enough to worry about it and I'd say unless you are talking about over 10K per year the difference probably isn't significant in dollars and cents. FWIW, I've had my car 3+ years and have put 6000 miles on it but drive 2 other cars on a regular basis. One of my 2006 resolutions was to drive the Turbo more this year and I have already. Now if this snow would just melt ...
