When I got my newer car the dealer was interested in getting the Z as part of the payoff but I just couldn't part with her. Most people won't understand the difference when the car is special to you. I would hate to sell it and find out it was destroyed.

20 years from now, you will esp. appreciate that you did not give her up.

There's a reason Z's in well condition really hold their value. In 10 to 20yrs when we start to see the price of these really go up for the more rare trim levels, I know I'm going to be kicking myself. Hopefully, being this might be the last generation (6th) to get a V8 in a Camaro, they also will appreciate in value as time moves on.

So you didn't have to sell to get the Camaro? Even though you don't have the garage space, the SS should stay parked outside and the Z inside the garage. I drool when looking at a 240Z/280Z. 20 years from now, the 370Z will no doubt still look damn good. Out of the Z line, I really think the 370Z is the best looking. And I wouldn't worry about future Camaro's coming out with V8's. Everyone is trying to go electric. The Corvette is officially going electric and I'm sure others will follow: https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/25/busin...tte/index.html

I can totally empathize with that. I tried to convince myself to do the most sensible thing and sell my aging and rusty 2000 Celica GT when I bought the Z in 2019. But it was my first car, and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Never even offered it for sale
So instead, I entrusted it to my fiancé and started looking for some boring family car that any responsible adult should have. To make a long story short, I ended up buying a fully rebuilt, shiny 2001 Celica GTS for a pretty good price. Actually, about a third of what would a new family hatch had cost me, as the car prices were already through the roof in my country. So, now I have two Celicas as daily cars and the Z in the garage |

And yeah, looks like the s2k has a collector status. 2009 CR sold for over $200K at an auction in 04.2022: https://insider.hagerty.com/trends/1...uction-record/

Having any of them sit outside would give me serious anxiety.

i Understand about babying your cars and taking care of them. I got over that when i decided to track the Z, it now has battle scars and damn proud of them.
My daily driver, is that, will work on keeping it nice and clean, but will drive it. As my moto states, 'Remember You bought it to drive it' and I stand by it
