I planned to do the same thing with my last sports car but after 7 years of driving it as a toy and in summer weather only it only had 21,000 mi. on it and I found I couldn't get much more for her than most of the other 7 year old cars that had 70,000 mi. or so on them. So I just kept her. Now my beautiful '95 special edition Miata has 35,000 mi. on her and I will keep her permanently as a collector's car or good old friend.
Not the best financial management but what the heck, we only live once.
