[QUOTE="Mojo88, post: 16400713, member: 184279"] My opinion is; you woulda been a lot happier buying that car with 2,000 miles on it. Then you could have driven it 500 miles a year, with no guilt, and likely not affecting the value much either. These super-low mile cars are a PITA, but that's JMHO. My modus operandi is to buy something nice, with low (not super-low) miles, then baby it and keep it pristine, and enjoy the heck out of it. Then sell it at some point and get most (or all) of my money back. I understand what you're doing, and some folks have made fortunes buying cars for investment. But others have gone belly up. So it's a coin toss. Main thing is IMO to have fun with these cars. And it's REALLY hard to have fun if your car has to sit in the garage and you have to worry about it all the time. Of course, it can be fun if you make a big profit when you sell it, but that's never happened to me. I hope it happens for you! Good luck with whatever you decide. [/QUOTE]
