A guy wants to give me 11,500 for my SVT. I just got it back from having the Mirko splitter molded in and the whole car being painted. Aside from that he saw my car and flipped for it. I was thinking what do I get if I sell it. I can gather maybe another 2g from my savings account (im only 19) and buy another car. The only cars I want and was thinking of a 95-98 M3, or a 71-74 TVR 2500 M, or TVR 2500 and restore it to a weekend track/everyday car. Right now I use my tour for a weekend track car/ everyday car. If i were to get the TVR, id buy like an old honda $300 beater. I still dont know if I want to sell it, but 11,500 is pretty darn good for our cars, but i have done so many mods to it and have so much time in it. ahhh its a real dilema

If I were you I'd keep it, since you said you have so much money and time into it. You would never get that back. Just my 2 cents.

11,500 is not that good for it.
well.... maybe it is, but it's still not worth having a car that looks fanfuckingtastic and handles like a mother.
I'd keep it and wait. I'm doing the same thing with my 'tour. Keeping it for a while, because I know it'll take a long time to stop looking good, and there's so much MORE that could put into it (in addition to everything I already have puy into it.

I don't know about driving around in a $300 beater though...if that was the case I'd keep what I have now.

$300 beater means that you'll be seen driving to school, on dates, to work, around town in a $300 car... you don't want that. I doubt you can find an M3 for 13k... I may be wrong... but think about repair and insurance costs on a Bimmer.... I'd buy something like this or take out a small loan and car payment, and get one of these.
Or a used A4 would always be nice!
Edit: or you could buy my vette [cough cough HINT cough]

95-98 M3?
you mean a 88-89 M3 with the 4cylinder 200hp engine that can easily be fitted with a turbo

How about a WRX or a Mazda 6. Those are pretty decent cars. The WRX has a 2.0 220hp turbocharged engine.
