right on the money there! If the car is only special to you then off to the highest bidder it goes. If its something special in the market then I might, hear that MIGHT not sell it to someone who trashes it.

I bought an e30 M3 brand new off the lot at Braman in Aug 1990 and kept it for 4 years ( a long time for me ). I ended up selling it to a guy who would convert it to a full track car and his wrecked m3 was right there when I dropped the car off. I was bummed out for a minute then that feeling passed when I hopped in my next ride.
