Hello spridgets,

  my daughter has her first car now.. when she got it i told her that
  when she sells it, she'll hate herself forever... but that
  eventually she would sell it, but when she turned 40 or 45, (she's
  17 now) she would look back and wish she still had it.. most especially when 
she
  sees that its a $40k -> $50k car... i'm talking FUTURE collector car
  here... a 1988 toyota MR2.  she got it for $1000. its in rough
  shape, but still.. .. the cars that people will want are the ones
  they're growing up with.. rice rockets that handle well and get good
  fuel mileage (she's getting 35 on the freeway) .. there isn't so
  much electronic stuff on it that will be unavailable (black box
  stuff) in another 30 years, so immanently restorable.. she's already
  had offers of $3000 PLUS another car.. .. but.. she'll go off to
  college and have no place to store it, or.. eventually get married
  and have kids and it won't be practical.. .. i only wish I had a
  place to keep it for her (for ME!!) .. oh well.. ..

Best regards,
Bill                             mailto:pythias@pacifier.com
