everyone is gonna trade it in eventually... unless they want to keep it til it completely dies...and is worthless...

I am planning to trade it in for a Nissan GTR in another two years probably after the craze dies down...
I like the C63 brute power and practicality, but the styling seems for the older generation... If only they made it more like a bmw's styling or something I'd consider...

What do you mean by that? Do you mean how much do I expect or am willing to trade it in for? ... I don't know... as long as it is in the mid 30k-ish I will be fine cause I plan to pay the rest in cash...

No, what i mean is, every car i buy i PLAN to keep till it dies, course life happens and i have to sell for one reason or other. ie: i have a fine 89 5.0 LX fox mustang thats red/red, i knew if i ever tried to sell a red/red car i'd have a hard time BUT i bought it thinking i'd never sell it and for me red int is fine... now i bought a is350 and im having the hardest time selling the 5.0... I buy my cars for me without concerns of resale/depreciation. In reality, cars are poor investment so i buy for my enjoyment.

I'm keeping mine until the wheels fall off or some major life event forces me to get rid of it.

I will definitely trade it.....I haven't met a car yet that I wanted to keep forever, and the rattly clutch on this one makes the trade in date seem sooner rather than later.

But unless I hit the lottery, or Daddy Warbucks claims me as his long-lost son, I won't be getting any of the vehicles mentioned in this poll.
