My car “shows” nearly 20k miles - but I have the maintenance records, gas logs, and repair bills to prove it’s 120k! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) You are rightfully proud of those miles that have been earned though real world use. Personally, I don't understand all the fuss over low mileage collector pieces. Let's just say for a moment that it really was an original 28K mile car. What does that really imply? That means the "value" in the car is related to its low mileage. So now someone will have paid a premium on an otherwise nice car, just for the low mileage. Any subsequent mileage just means massive depreciation per mile added. So unless that buyer is going to throw away the mileage valuation, it can't be driven and enjoyed without destroying the low mileage premium that might be expected in the future. We are are all have our own things that stir our souls. Parking a car in the garage an polishing it until the paint wears thin isn't mine. God bless those that find joy in just looking at a car. . . . but I don't get it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) |

If it's somebodies thing, great but it does nothing for me. |

Gotta strongly disagree here. IMO numbers matching is way more important for determining value. Why? Because my car has matching numbers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
