I can probably sell it for something between 15k & 18k (haven't yet researched the market). Part of me says keep it and another part of me asks "will you drive it enough to warrant keeping it once you have the Elise?"

Didn't think I'd ever post asking for opinions on a dumb personal decision, but, oh well.....
Something I want to put down here...
1- On any car, there are some points you got "tired of it" and you think you might want something else. You will do the same with any car. How long do you think you will keep the Elise? When it come to think about selling the Elise, what are you gonig to get? A 911 again?
2- If you have to get an Elise right now, no matter what, just sell it. Don't keep too many toys. You won't have time for them and you will get sick of them all. It happen to me and to many friends I know. Keep only and put all your love into it.
3- Didn't think I'd ever post asking for opinions on a dumb personal decision, but, oh well... I agree. I am the type of person that I don't think I ever have to ask for personal decision but it happend.
4- If you have to ask, and the way you asked, I don't think you will sell your 911. Let me ask you this question... if now you don't have both, which one you will feel missing the most? Which one you will feel yuo want to have in most occasions?
