I have 160K + on my twinturbo and still drive it like I stole it. Don't think the roadster will be any different. Told my wife that I would never buy a car I wouldn't drive. That being said, I hate when either one of them are out in the rain.

I just want it to still be running when it's paid off.

No it is my daily driver. This car is an investment in myself, not a sensible financial one. The more miles means more potentiality of fun.
Unless someone leases one, and pays for the mileage, as discussed earlier, resale will likely be poor anyway.

It bothers me a little. My Z is my second car so I'm able to keep the miles off it pretty well. I plan on keeping my Z for as long as I can. Who knows when I will ever be able to afford a car like this again, so keeping the miles low is kind of a priority for me. But its never gonna stop me from having fun with it.

I sold my two year old '04 G35 6MT Sport when we in the market for a house... with barely 8,000 miles on it. I swore to never do that again.

I was using the del Sol as a commuter, and the G as a weekend driver.

Mine is intended as a DD and I'll drive it as it's meant to be (= hard). My wife owns our family car (Volvo V70 estate) so no problems .
