LOL - sure a good way to look at it. But the car is suspect as it stops running for a reason that could not be determined. Not fun.
Peppy - how many miles? What year?
I would try to keep running it until the warranty is up. Decide if that's 36k or 60k miles for you. Selling after 3 or 5 years is perfectly fine in terms of depreciation. They are good points in the curve IMHO - the next best chance would be 90k and then 180k.
My car hasn't had any problems and I will keep it for 5/60k knowing that likely any HPFP issues will be covered. After 60k it will be a good time for me to look for a new car anyway.
