I like this comment, nice one Stuart.

You only live once so do what makes you happy the short time we are here. :thumbsup:

I often hear from homeowners, this will be my last house and I'm going to die here. Five years later they are calling to sell because the wind changed directions that morning.

Personally, I think you always need to look at resale. While these aren't investments, we all want to take the smallest loss possible in the event we do sell our babies.

For example: A black 1969 Camaro with subtle mods and a big block chevy. Never going out of style. :unibrow:

Aint nuttin subtle about that, Pal...:thumbsup:

We have a fairly constant onshore flow here in Del Mar so the wind rarely changes direction for me. And I bet they didn't build that house with their own hands.

Subtle my ass. :lol: Understatement of the week. You got the style part right though. :thumbsup:

That's because he didn't have any cars to sell you. You actually are another example. You probably did better selling my old ZL1 clone than on any of your financial advisor's choices.

No one does as good as Charley. He is the man. The super snake worked out pretty well.

Yeah the yellow car did ok. Too fast for me.

I used to never drive any of my cars, worried about putting miles on them, getting damaged ect.. Now I try and drive each of them at least once a month (except the Ford GT) because if I die tomorrow, I don't want my wife's new boyfriend to say " that SW was a great guy, he kept all his cars pristine for me"..:D So now it's on, I take perfect care of them but drive the s..t out of them every chance I get. My twin-turbo Lambo has C16 in it all the time, so its on kill everytime I drive it.:yes:

Quote of the day from SW :lol: :cheers:

SW,

Why do you not drive the Ford GT? I only ask because should I not find a nice PT car (f'ing soon!) I may buy a GT.

I love it the car, but I just can't bring myself to drive it too much. I drove it around for the first 6 months I owned it, it just turned 1200 miles. I put 47 miles on it last year and 20 miles on it this year so far. It sits on the lift and just looks good. I had it twin-turboed but I have every stock piece wrapped in plastic and can return it to stock in a day. It's the best built domestic car that I have driven.

That being said, you know I'm a speed freak and the GT makes about 850 rwh on pump. It's fun to drive but will not hook until top of 3rd gear. After driving my Lambo which makes 1080 rwh on 93, nothing else comes close. I can plant 1400 wheel hp in 3rd gear on Toyo R888s on the street..it's nuts. I think I have screwed up my speed perception of cars having several twin-turbo cars..:D
