Keep them, even if you do put it up, you'll be just like me... you'll change your mind again when you get that first offer, then you'll wanna keep it again, and then repeat.

i just had a sweet idea... keep a for sale sign on the car with some OUTRAGOUS price... if some one bites... SELL IT! and buy a newer (less mileage) svx and have money left over for mods

I'm going to go with the consensus, FWIW. I will advise against selling them. Take a break, work on another hobby for a while, do what you need to do to relax, but just unloading these cars will be something that I think you'll regret (well, maybe not the teal ). I know I would regret it.

I agree with eric....sell the teal and keep the silver. Without you man my car would be dead on the side of the road....can't even thank you enough for the things you have done.

If you’re not sure, don’t commit without a backup plan.

Is it the working on SVXs that’s got you bored/frustrated/ or whatever or are you just not enjoying driving them any more?

Maybe some variety will help. If you can afford it, keep them both and buy something else that you want. Live with the new car, drive it, fix it, modify it to your heart’s content. Then decide if you want to sell one or both SVXs. You may find that you want to keep both SVXs and sell the new one.

If you can’t afford it, sell the teal and use that money to buy something else. Don’t sell them both until you’re sure you’ll like something else at least as well.

well thanks for the advice guys. I am probobly going to keep it. Dunno about the stage 3 just yet but it is looking more and more like the right option for me. I just don't have the time or patience to tune this car anymore. Getting tired of it real quick I am turning down jobs on cars simply because I don't want the hassle. Eh maybe I will buy a jetski and a stage 3 and be happy

Tom
