I'll be done with school soon as well (as civil engineer). I wanna get 335 coupe, always liked how it looks and handles. See the thing is, when you graduate, it's not like you're going to get hired as CEO, and make tons of money right away; you have to build your career. So, getting 911 turbo could get some time lol.

Honestly I dont have any plans on selling the SC.....every now and then I entertain the thought of getting rid of her but thats only when she starts talking back to me and being a royal ***** lol..........hell I do the same with the wifey and have yet to can her lol.
I didnt buy the SC to impress anyone and I could seriously careless whether the style is out of date or not, as long as I like the look of it thats what matters to me. If people find the SC out of date, slow, etc they can kiss one of my 2 *** cheeks......and if they really have an issue they can kiss both and call it a day.
I have a few other cars/toys that I have for my need for speed and long drives all of which I would sell before my SC........there is just something about the SC that I love more than most cars out today. Imo most cars that are out today look like a they came from another planet and have zero character........they all come from the same mold and thats just not for me. To me the SC has character which very few cars nowadays have and only a handful from the 90's.
To the OP.............I dont know you from a hole in the wall so dont think I'm being a jerk or anything like that and please dont take this personal because that is not my intention. If you are going to sell the SC because it is becoming out dated, under powered, etc........then I would recommend either A) getting out of the car game because 90% of cars go through this or B) stop trying to fit in or impress people by what you drive because it is a battle you will not win.
Now with that being said if you or anyone else are going to sell the SC because you stop liking it, financial reasons, family, etc............then imo thats a good reason to move on, but if its for reasons as mentioned before you are going to end up buying and selling alot of cars and houses in your life.
To stay on topic I'm looking into the purchasing another GTO Judge or a Tundra neither of which will be replacing the SC, instead they will be complimenting it lol

Unless something goes HORRIBLY WRONG in my life, I'd never get rid of my SC -- or at the very least, have ownership of one. About the style, I believe that as long as the car has been taken care of, the car's looks have aged well. Just think of how many people mistake it for a 2000+ car. They're underpowered and slow compared to today's cars so modifications under the hood are pretty much a necessity to keep up. Although, given the potential for the SC to become a future classic, modifications may ruin the future value.
I am seriously considering augmenting my vehicle "collection" by adding a 1970 Eldorado with the 8.2L V8. Check it out, 40 years old and ****'s STILL cash:
Other hopeful additions, although not as likely as the Cadillac above:
- BMW 850 (still the last good GT BMW built in my opinion)
- Mercedes SL 55 (realistic goal within 20 years I WILL own one)
- Mercedes SEC (the '80s style recently caught my eye)
If I had to pick a four-door, it would probably be another Lexus. Most likely a '90s LS or a first-gen IS.
