I usually keep my cars for about 4-5 years, then use trade it in for something new. BUT... I have been thinking of getting nicer rims and tires, ECU upgrade and Illuminated doorsills. All that money could have go towards upgrading to the C63.
I guess i have a bit of buyers remorse and wish i had done that in the first place

well right now i could probably barely pay off my loan for what i could sell it for, plus i actually still love my car so i dont really think about selling it at all.
as long as it continues to run well and i am happy every time i get behind the wheel i will keep it. i think my kenwood head unit is a large reason i love the car, its so nice to have good navigation, be able to watch dvds, and have bluetooth all from one easy to use unit. but the rest of the car is a lot nicer than my old jetta so i am actually very happy with my car still.

I plan to keep my car for 4yrs/50,000 mls whichever comes first... I've already advised the wife that a car payment will always be factored into the budget because I'm too addicted to nice cars. I plan to drive within the warranty, so once the warranty is up, new vehicle here i come provided no drastic economic changes occur in my life. No money down when financed so no money lost in mind.
