I love My CB, I enjoy driving it, And I have fun in it generally.
I've honestly been considering selling it for the last month for several reasons - It's now 17 years old, Its drinks the gas faster than I can drink water (mind you thats just a part of the fun of being turbo) and in all honestly, recently I've driven it less than twice a month for the last 4 months, Lastly there is a decent amount of money tied up in the CB, and I know if I keep it I will only spend more on it., or it will sit in the garage being used only occasionally.
I love the facts that it was hand built by myself - I.e no no-one else has worked on the car other than me since i got it stock 2.5 years ago, the power it has, the experiences I've had in it, and the on-going potential it has.
I do look up to the CB's such as "Boost Lee, Chessboxer, and Hondafan81" just to name a couple (there are Soooo many more as well , so don't be offended if I diddn't mention you). And I take into consideration the $/time/effort and sleepless nights that has gone into those cars (I know I've had my fair share)
Atm I can't picture my CB leaving my driveway being driven by someone else, but the reality seems to be coming closer as I think about the potential of selling it.
I really wanted to hit 400whp as a daily driver before I sold it just for the experience, but its beginning to feel like I'm fighting a losing battle - The only gain that will realistically come from that is personal experience. It won't make the car any more valuable, nor anymore sellable IMO.
Your guys thoughts?
Keep it as is?
Keep it and contine with my future plans?
Sell it, and decide what to do from there?
