Tough Decision - Part with "too nice to drive" Hardtop Supra or Z06 TT
Wow - appreciate the input guys! The builds on the '98 Supra and TTG should be completed this week. Once I have those cars back and can drive them I'm hoping parting with the C6Z TT will become an easier decision.
I just have one thing to say for all of you voting for the Supra. Why keep a car in your garage you won't/don't drive. This is what I struggle with.
If you add up the annual property tax, insurance, cost of routine maintenance to ensure proper care, etc. the Supra will never appreciate more than the cost of ownership. For me it's even tougher because I have a long history with the Supra and Supra community. I've attended the vegas and houston supra meets for years. Have a collection of every piece of literature ever produced as well as kyosho supra collection.
My point is if anyone has a sentimental reason to keep a low mileage Supra, I do, but still can't help but have doubts about whether its really justifiable to have a mere garage ornament.
On the other hand everyone says i was insane to modify a 16k mile bone stock '98 6-speed Supra to APU+++ levels, but the difference is I'll at least drive and enjoy it.

. For some reason, I feel guilty driving it, not sure why and I know cars are meant to be driven.
