Help! Which car to get rid of???

After 2 years, I finally broke down and got a Ford!!! Had to park the GT3 outside and believe it or not, the GT3 never went off by itself and 2 hours after I parked it outside, it went off!!! Was it crying to get back into the garage. I think it has a soul. But soul or not, w/ the 997 GT3 and GT3RS just around the corner. It may have to go. But it is still my favorite car for driving in all conditions. The Lotus is great handling but hotter than hell (literally) in hot summer days. Ferrari is just a GT and slow in its reflexes. Well, Lotus and GT are new, so either the F355 Sypder or the GT3 must go. Help me out guys, which one should I get rid of for now??? What would you do?

well, I'd just build a bigger garage and keep them all Actually, I'd wait until you get the 997 GT3/GT3RS, then if you feel the 996GT3 is going to sit, then might as well get rid of that one and pass it along to someoneone that will get more use out of it.

Get rid of the poor GT3 if you're not going to drive it when the 997GT3 arrived.

The F355 has to go, a poseur to say the least. Not only do I blow by it in my GT3, but also in my RX-7.

I would keep the GT3....less maintenance costs and the F car is approaching that time when you're going to $pend major money on it. I would love to have the F car, but I can't afford it.

I'd sell the GT3 while it still carries a premium. Heaven forbid you're stuck to choose between the GT, 355s, and Lotus. I truly feel sorry for you
