With all the money I'd save I could easily get some new brewing gear.

I wonder how tough it is to sell a car for 29-30K to an individual?
Wow...you sounded just like me last year. I owned an '07 350Z Roadster that was a garage queen never even driving it in the rain. I had a Toyota Matrix as a DD and drove the Z on weekends. Even though I loved the Z, after a while I could not justify paying for it, not to mention the insurance and taxes, when it basically sat in the garage. I decided to trade it in for something more practical and got a MazdaSpeed3. Though the MS3 is no dog, it's not a Z. I missed the Z so much that after just a few months of having the MS3, I traded that in for the '09 370Z I have now and have never looked back. I'll drive my Z until the wheels fall off and I can tell you that I have a renewed appreciation for the Z. I just hope you don't regret it like I did when I traded my 350Z in. I would really think about it before you make the decision to get rid of it. Good luck!
