I definitely will if there is still gas around, or if I don't have to sell a kidney to pay for a full tank, or if the government hasn't decided 5 liter is wayyy to much for an healthy environment or if I don't get side swiped by environmentalists in an electric car.

Sure will. And we can go ***** out because we'll already have the diapers on.

Mine is a toy, so I don't ever see it going away.

I see no need to get rid of the best performance value I have ever had. I don't have to dd it, in fact I should drive it more often, but when I take it out....OH YAH!

I hope to keep my 84 928S on the road and in my garage for years to come. unless I decide to upgrade to an S4.

it is my semi-dd and I love every time I drive it. just got a big box of parts from Roger for more refresh work over the winter to help ensure it remains reliable.

I hope to eventually get a sport pilot license, and if I do I would sell the motorcycle and maybe the 911 if needed to buy a plane.

Top Ten Reasons to Keep
1. It's paid for!
2. Car I've always wanted since back in high school. (many years ago)
3. Wife and chicks did it.
4. Everyone think's it's fairly new.
5. Rarely see another one on the road.
6. Worked out most gremlins, and could be used as a daily driver. ( However, garage queen)
7. Looks cool.
8. It's a Porsche.
9. Always exciting to drive.
10. Did I mention chicks dig it!

I have yet to have been able to keep any car longer than 4 years. We will see. 1.3 years into 94 GTS.

I've had a 928 since about 88. I doubt I will have my S4 in two years, but I am very sure there will still be lots of projects ahead on the OB cab at that point.

Wow... I haven't gotten this introspective since I tried peyote!

I love my 928GT, but I also know that I would trade it for many an Aston Martin without even kissing the shark good bye, so I can't say I'd never get rid of it. In either case, I really love having a great car like the 928 for weekend getaways and such. Hmm...

How about this... I hope that I am still driving a beautiful and fast grand touring coupe in 5 years!

I'm notorious for swapping cars but that was because I could only afford a couple at a time. Now I can afford it and plan on adding a couple siblings in the future, without selling anything. Really thinking about tracking down some of my previous cars and buying them back.

Well if you decide you are tired of that GTS in 3 years or less I want to be first in line when you get rid of it. That is one beautiful 928. I think I would be buried in it.

not sure I'll always own multiple 928s, but will always have one in the stable
