How Long Do You Plan To Keep Your AE86?

[sic86]

Just wanting to see how long people actually want to keep the AE86 for http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/cool.gif

Cheers

[Sprinterboy]

I wanna keep mine for ever and ever and ever! Gonna hand it down to my son/daughter if i ever have kids!

[VIC_AE86]

I said to my self when I had my 4AGE Sprinter that I would never get rid of it.

I sold it...

Good thing is I have another..

[slydar]

its more depemdant on whether or not i get a chance to put some time into it and get it all "right".

if i ever got around to servicing and reco'ing everything that needs it (which is everything) and building a nie motor like i want to, i wouldnt plan to sell it ever.

as it is though financially it represents a pretty large chunk of what i own, and if i need to turn it back into cash for some reason, then it goes. no big deal, i know i can get another one.

until someone pays for me to have a more competative car hmmmmmm maybe 5 years ! LOL

[BouNCE-86]

Forever!.............. http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Gilly]

i'll keep the KE until i crash it or get bored, KE's don't exactly have the same resale as a sprinter. if ihad all my bits in a sprinter instead of a ke i could probably get 30% more for it!!

[flamingheads]

Until someone offers me a ridiculous ammount of money for it http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Brenton 86]

Considering the ridiculous amount of money i have put into my 86 and the fact that i will be lucky to get half back when i sell it.........i'll never sell it. Just to prolong the enevitable depression of some fag saying "hummm, i'll give ya 8k cash" and me saying "hik-hik(crying) ok"
I'm guessing most people here are in the same position

[LordNafe]

I think they should "reproduce" the AE86 as a brand new car again http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/happy.gif
But with a black top 20v in them!
But, I have no plans of getting rid of mine.

ive wanted a sprinter since i was like 14 that was 11 years ago my grandma bought it brand spanking new when she passed on i was lucky enough to get it
it was stock and in almost mint conditionwith only 180000ks done so ill keep it if i crash it ill get another one and so on ive had v8s, turbos,brand new and restored.
the sprinter is still the one car that ive always wanted so ill keep it no matter what.

[sharpie_13]

amen brother

[[MET]]

I always sell my AE86's and say RIGHT HAD ENOUGH! then I always get urges to buy another, this has happened 3 times!! over the past 8years! yes I was into them before the cartoon BS hit our shores.

I'm getting that urge again! next time i'm gonna spend 8K+ to buy a good one and keep it.......these 2-4K ones are just friggen money pits!!! better off buying one that someone has already 'wasted' 10K on

[xsoarerx]

untill my current body is complety forked! then upgrade to a notch back!

so thats going to be a while!

Cheers[/b]hey u forgot for life

[Shahzan]

Same here...
FOREVER ! ! !

i wanna keep watever car i buy

[Gilly]

considering the amount of time and effort going into it and the lack of desire to do anything like this again, i'd say i'll hang onto this for a while.

it will be the most "complete" package i've ever owned which is another reason to not change

in saying that it is a car and tastes change so i'm sure i won't have it in say 5 years time and if i don't i won't be in another 86 i'll be in something completely different no doubt.

[Oly AE86]

Also keeping mine until have kids and they can drive. Spent too much time and money to let anyone else enjoy it.

[SR AE86]

ME+AE86









We shall never part!

I will die driving it. :2thumbs:

same here.
will become a family heirloom. past down from generation to generation :2thumbs:
thats if i get it going by then

[ke70dave]

hahahhahha you guys are VERY optimistic...

just wait..tomorrow you might meet the girl of your dreams but before you get married she sais you need to sell up, bet you wont have much trouble selling it then!

ill hang on to the ke70 till i can afford something thats already awesome, almost an engineer........BMW M3 would be nice, older one of course..none of this new spaceage looking crap, something classy and fast!!!

although i wouldn't mind turning my ke into a race car/major project car...but all depends what happens in the future i reckon.

[stylz]

probly another few more years then ill go back to having a dirty nissan.
the rust is the main thing i hate about 86's, so probly a newish nissan for me

[stefan]

longer than meathead#1 keeps down a job

[lo_rolla]

After I finish this NA build I'm gonna drive it til I get bored / engine dies / defected then strip it down again and do a full house build instead of this... half house build. Say like another 20g on it. Then I'll drive in it, build a time machine and take the car back with me to 1983 when I'm -2 years old and start all over again.....

you need to sort your priorities man...lol

[ghetto ke]

had mine for 8 or so years, so maybe ask me again in another 70-80 :P

I will keep my AE86 after all the earths oil supply has been exhausted!!!

[shinobi]

word 741

ill get a flux capacitator engine and hover conversion on mine if that happens

but it wont cos oil is a burn off from the earths core and most oil wells that were thought once dry are full again but thats not what those greedy oil barrons want you to know!!!

anyway shows how many people have these cars as an investment and not cos they like em or something stupid like that...

iv'e seen this browny gold one in my hood now owned by the same dude with the same 4ac and the same dented front gaurd for years and if you ask him are you gonna sell hes like- no way!!

i hate that guy!!
