The car will depreciate whether you drive it or not, might as well enjoy it.

I recommend that you keep it garaged, under a cover, keep it clean and polished. Maybe even put it on jackstands to not flat spot the tires during winter months. Make sure you start it up once a month and let it run up to 220*F oil temperature to evaporate any condensation. Try to drive it no more than 5000 miles a year.

After 10 years give me a call and I'll gladly pick the car up for 20% of its original value with 50k miles. I'll be sure to shake your hand and thank you for saving her for me!

Talking Cars are like women ...

Do you put them on a pedestal and worship them, or do you enjoy them the way their were intended and want?

Or you can always get a two-car garage ....

Sound like you bought the car for the wrong reason instead of enjoying it.

When I read the title of this thread, I was sure I was about to read about high-speed, spirited driving and how easy it is to average low mpg. Wrong. Like most have said, buy the car, drive the car. These aren't investments, they're toys. Play with it! (so to speak).

The # 1 , True and Tried method to keep miles off your car !!





Don't buy it!




These cars are ment to be driven and driven hard :-)
I stated in another thread, when I bought my girl her C43 ‘19, she put the 1K miles for breakin in 1 week, actually I think it was 5 days.....

I have @28K miles in mine (c63s ‘17) and drive her everyday. (Even if its just to the store, I take the long route)

I drive my 2019 C64S coupe everyday and love it. I plan on renting a car for short period if NYC area get's hit with major snow storm and thus keep the beast warm and dry. Enterprise Rentals has some good specials.

Mine sits in the garage , I use it on sunny weekends and do not drive it in the winter or crappy weather ....probably has to do with how hard the wheels are to clean ,lol . I have other cars to drive and rack up the miles . Mines a 2015 with 25,000 kms ( not miles)
