To keep or not to keep my 02 TL-S

Its a tough decision, but I am struggling to find a reason to keep my 02 SSM TL-S. The body, paint and interior is spotless. I have all the bolt ons for it save the comptech s/c. I bought an 08 BMW 335i cash and have already pushed it from 276 rwhp to 356 rwhp...its pretty damn fast. The ack has 117K miles on it and the BMW just hit 60K. Thinking of using the ack for long trips so I can make it to the end of the 6 year 100K miles BMW CPO that runs to March, 2014. Blue book on the acura is about $7K and not only will I not get anywhere close to what I have in it, but its going to be harder to sell since the mods will turn alot of people off. Its paid off, and I am debating keeping it or selling it if I can get $7K system included. Please vote.

I would part it out to get some money back and then drive it for long trips. That BMW is way too nice to put that many miles on it. And you really need that warranty on a high mileage Bimmer.

I would definitely keep the TL-S. I also own two vehicles; it is very nice having a secondary vehicle when you need to drive in inclement weather and/or long trips.

I def think you should keep itt!!!...I just recently picked up an 03 AM TL and love the ride. Also having a secondary/backup is always wonderfull, esp when you have an option of choosing which car to add miles on.

I'd say keep it, unless you want/need the $7k. If you do, part out your car, then sell it stock for 7 if you can get it, then sell your parts on the BM.

Keep it. You never know if something will happen to the BMW.
