Perhaps because mine is a V6tt its not as revered but I drive it as much as I can and have 4 other choices at my disposal.

Reminds me of this quote, - "Not driving your car for resale value is like not banging your gf to keep it tight for the next guy".

Exactly. Life is short - enjoy everything you can while you are able.

So true. I have an F355 with 65K miles and counting. I drive her every chance I get. My buddy has a 348 with 178K miles and running strong.

YOLO.

You are right about 101 from Gilroy all the way to SF, it is rough road in some sections due to heavy rain this year. Caltrain did not fix the road I don't understand why ... sensitive subject and flame with high $gas and $$$ DMV registration. SAD

Tell me about it. Especially car registrations.
To give the rest of you an idea, my PTT in Silicon Valley, registration for one year will cost $657 per one year. Same identical car, in Texas (any part of state), registration will cost $63 per one year.
Talk about government reaching into your pocket.

I love the FL registration: cost me less than HALF as much to reg cars here compared to MI.... and we get 2 years here.

If you have never lived outside CA or NY or IL, once you move and realize the advantages tax wise and weather wise, you will know. NOW is time to move - so much work, not funny.
