I hope to get 10 years out of mine and sell it. That way I enjoy the car and get the worth out of it.

By then there will be something else faster, better handling and of more interest to me.

I have one car I am keeping and the only reason I keep it is it was the first car I bought new and I show it now and have placed in national shows. It is not worth much and but it is cheap to keep and was a real part of my younger days.

I hope by the time I am ready for a new car GM will have a good Eco Turbo in the RWD Alpha platform of some interest to me.

I'm planning on catching up with our new member who has 300000 now on a 07 just love the retro look with the modern convenience's an LT2 would have been fine but once I drove a SS it was over. And I've been fine tuning it to my liking ever since still have a few more things to do Then I'll probably have to wrestle my daughter over the keys I think she has been planning on taking it when she gets her license.

I usually keep my cars for 6-9 yrs so call me a lifer with the SS.

I've been a big leaser for about a decade... this my first new car "buy" I ever had. So we'll see how it goes.

Not sure yet. For some reason, if it was rear wheel drive I would say definitely yes. Something about a FWD car that makes it less of a keeper to me, on the other hand I can see having an original Mini-Cooper S, so maybe so. Sure is (still) a blast to drive, so I have at least a couple of years left with it.
