To sell or not to sell, that is the question
Discussion
Keep it, spend money on it and love it.
Very nearly sold mine for a 993 C4S Coupe recently, she was a special car too, then got back in the Griff and drove it for two days having not even moved it out of the garage all winter . You can't beat a well set up Griff. Nothing else compares. What ever you're considering as a replacement, they may handle slightly better, be slightly quicker, be a bit newer (or older in my scenario), have that "must own one at some point'" temptation, but you can't really or at least I can't say that anything else would give you that 'special grin' very time you drive it.
I drive some very special cars day in, day out, in the job I do. Classics to the latest Hyper cars and nothing quite gives that same feeling as when I get in my car, wait for the fuel pump to prime, and fire it up., drive off, wait for it to warm up then give it some stick on a nice windy country lane.
Maybe I'm just a little strange. Give me my Griff over an Aventador any day, never mind a later Speed6 TVR !!

^^^^^^^ What he says!!!!! See my profile for my car lunacy and history, now in the middle of a Griff-restoration/respray/retrim/upgrade-project as the Griff was the most special car i've driven or owned so need one in my garage again. Keep it, nothing can replace it. I sold my very well sorted Tuscan (nitrons etc) to get back to my almost 20 year old new love. New cars are too digital, i tend to go back to the analogue 90'ies youngtimer era because they just crawl under your skin...... And fulfill all your speed and raw senses desires in the meantime. (I also re-discovered the Maranello in the same way as a big stylish GT for travelling)

^^^^^^^ and what he says! I had a T350 followed by 3 AMV8Vs and, good as those cars were, there's something a bit special about a Griff.Gassing Station | Griffith | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
