The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) VI

A good DA has the option to switch the back plate to a smaller or larger one. You should see if your griots is the same as mine if so

ahh... different beast entirely... I'm with you. I think either one will serve you well, but I wouldn't hesitate to get the more expensive one if you think it's the better purchase

Can I get your opinions on what I should do with my cars?

My current car situation:
I have 3 vehicles: a 2008 Toyota Highlander which is my daily driver, 2011 370Z, and 2011 IS-F.
I only really need one... My Z and IS-F sit in the garage most of the time and are collecting dust and depreciating so I want to sell two vehicles and keep one. They're all paid off and I don't owe anything on them but I feel like I'm losing money just keeping them here. I'm leaning towards selling the Z and IS-F and keeping the Highlander because it's the most practical of the 3 and the others still have high resale value. I could use the money towards buying a new house.

If you have to get rid of two, keep the Z for your DD and use the Rav4 for any "practical" needs you might have

If you don't need all that space I would sell the Highlander and Z and keep the IS-F. It's sporty and can still seat 4 on short trips if needed.

If it was me, I'd keep the Highlander + either the Z of IS-F and get rid of the other. There will be days where you wish you had something more fun than the Highlander, whether it's the Z or IS-F. I agree though, it doesn't make sense to have both sitting in the garage all the time, especially if you're looking to buy a new house. Dump at least one and put the money towards the house. If you're just concerned with getting the most money then yes, keep the Highlander and sell the other two.

Well, I just think that since you have access to a practical vehicle, then you don't need to keep your Highlander (I use my dad's Rav4 all the time ). And if you're not going to keep the most practical vehicle, then you might as well keep the least practical vehicle
