Why?? 200

Okay, so you just spent nearly $14,000 on a 23-year-old car that is almost as common as dirt and that has a blue book value (if the blue book went back that far) of probably less than $2,500. You could never, ever resell it for what you paid....probably not even $7,500.

So, do you make the car a daily driver and proceed to wear it out? Do you drive it once a week and otherwise keep it garaged and, if so, what was the point of buying the vehicle in the first place?

I just don't get it...this is a very nice, very clean 240 but it is certainly not a rarity, nor is it a collectible or a 'classic' car. I would have thought that $3,000.00 was a (more than) fair price. Go figure...
