hmm i wonder what our cars actually sell for? these are cars that sold. keep in mind these are dealer prices, private sale value is lower. took the liberty of guessing his was around 100k since that's what he posted. edits are to cut out all the 10k miles cars and stuff so this post isn't huge.

(VIN decoding shows my car's prolly worth a lil more than these)



man i used to love that Cadillac boat steering, ive dailied a bunch of Cadillacs over the years but these days i like crisp & responsive steering. in general i'm really picky with anything that doesn't have a mechanical rack, that's why i like older cars. some new sports cars get the electronic steering right how i like it tho.

the trunk's pimp as fuck. it could easily fit 2 good size hookers, maybe 4 or 5 if you cut their limbs off and stack em up like lincoln logs.

i used to love it but i've had it for a long time and i'm bored with it. but yeah, future classic, it's going to be tough to part with if i sell since its the last year of the last real Cadillac..

trade ins are always shit. i'm still cringing at my friend who impulse bought a 128i and traded in his mint 60k miles 98 z3 i6 for like a grand. i would have paid him at least 5 on impulse, prolly 7 if he held the carrot in front of my nose for a couple days. still haven't seen one that clean, only saving grace is that it was a meh paint color.

so that's what the BMW dealer was talking about when he said "buying a BMW is more of an investment than any other car, these hold value" [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Kerwin's 300 definitely has a reputation, but for how much longer I don't know. That generation who appreciates the ZX is getting older and I think its like you said, without the right specs Im not paying more than 2k-3k if I was in that market.

I imagine a lot of the 300ZX price elasticity hinges on a far smaller of subset of people than the BMW aficionados. Maybe you could get the money Kerwin is talking about if you find a white suburban kid whos hot for rice and buying his first car. without the turbos man I don't see it.
