i was looking for a 328is when i stumbled across the 240, i can pretty much garauntee, that unless some kind of boost happens in the next year, my car will be for sale 1 year from right now.
I'm keeping my S13 for life, period! Then again I said that about my '00 Type R and look what I sold it for <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'>

I plan to keep it as long as I can, but it will lean towards the direction of project car, hobby car, or something I drive on the weekends. I want to get a WRX STi, but in the future I have a feeling I will buy an AFV or Alternative Fuel Vehicle. I might go for CNG or LPG. Just remember the gas we have right now will probably be gone in 35 years, when the 240SX can be considered a classic <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/satisfied.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':satisfied:'> .

my ultimate plan is to keep it forever, do a tranny swap at some point, and use it as my daily driver if i can ever afford my 350z track, which i want to mod the hell out of! suspension I/H/E all the fun stuff project 350z my goal would be 400 crank hp, maybe im just dreaming lol

i'll keep it forever. my friend always says he'll keep is 300zx forever and when he dies, it's going to be his coffin. he wants to be propped up like he's about to shift into 4th gear. <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cry.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cry:'>

This sounds about around what I would like to do. I will probably be getting new cars when I am older, but I dont think I could let my S14 go, especially when its even heavilier modded.
until after I die! ...*sniff*... it will always, always be in my heart. *wipes tear from corner of eye* ...

I actually was thinking of putting that in my will. When I die I want to be buried in the drivers seat of a 300ZXTT with a crap load of mods. My life insurance would be more then enough to cover it and it would be much cooler then a boring coffin. I doubt it will ever happen though <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cry.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cry:'>
