Unhappy thinking of selling

thinking of selling my 7. Theres nothing wrong with it and it runs like a top. Im kinda depressed right now because of many things in life are going on!! i love this car but for some reason i just............ i dont know!! i have a company car(new) that i use for personel use all the time, free gas and maintaince!! i just dont really see many 7's around here too often, frankly i dont think anyones cares. My ex hated it and i just dont have the energy anymore, maybe.

if theres anyone out there that cares, lemme know give me a pick up on how i should keep it!!

thanx friends

chris

I would keep it. you arent in a position to sell it since you have that 100% free car so when your 7 breaks, you still have transportation.and if you are realy tired of it, just go on an all night drifting adventure with a set of spares in the trunk. drive that bitch into the GROUND.

or you could give it to me?

A car is a lot like a girl. It all comes down to you really wanting it to work out or not.

If you want it to work out you will spend your time and money, work hard, bleed for her because those little sharp pieces that dont look sharp.

But if you are a fickle pansy... you will dump her.
Unless of course you are trading her in for a newer model with bigger accessories!

Every time I walk up to my car, I look at it, I think "Thank you God for letting me have this awesome car!"

If you dont feel like that, you might want to seek a relationship with another.

My thoughts exactly. If driving the **** out of your car on your favorite curvy wooded road doesnt put a smile on your face. Get rid of it and get a taurus or cavalier or something.

Yea. I second that. If you really want to compare, take your company car for a drive on a winding road, then take your '7 on it (with your favorite music blasting). I know even during normal driving (city/highway), I can feel the huge difference between my '7 and the Saturn I borrowed while I was rebuilding the engine.

I know the feeling of being depressed & not wanting to deal with something. Computers, in my case. However, it usually passes. Keep the car for a few months, and see how you feel then. If you still don't really use it, then sell it. But don't make a decision while you're feeling depressed that you'll regret later.

thanx guys i really do feel better, i wish there were more drifting shows around my area. It never had any track time, I live in Vt and never see much annual carshow around here!! Kinda feel left out when theres all these stupid Hondas/Acuras around, at lease i can beat most of them though!! I think im gonna go for a ride its been like a 11/2 weeks since i drove it!! kinda stays covered in the driveway!!

the only reason my ex didnt like the car was it was too loud and noisy!! *** her dont care much about her anyways!! hehe she drive a 96 Lumina 4dr and shes only 21, old fart car(Lumina) what does she know!!

thanx again guys
Chris

Dude. By "loud" she probably meant "Doesn't sound like my hair dryer." I can't stand the exhaust whirr of most newer cars.

From a purely logical perspective, a '7 probably isn't the best car to own. They're not terribly fuel efficient, they require more maintenance than 'slosh gas in weekly,' and are old.

This is why you should go take it for a good hard drive. Bring some music, fill up the tank, check the oil & tires, and just go drive the **** out of it for a while with the windows and (if applicable) sunroof open.

If you haven't driven the car in a week and a half, you're in *no* condition to make any decisions about keeping or selling it!
