5+ for me. Keep your car in good condition and maintain it well, and ride out the depreciation wave. ;)

BTW, maybe this thread would be better as a poll?

with 5 yr warranty, likely selling at 4+, if the resale is good, else much longer than 5 yrs.

Normally only keep my cars for 3 years (lease). New Euro will be out by the end of the lease.

originally i was thinking about 3 years to ride out the warranty.. but now that the depreciation bat has hit euros hard i might keep it longer so my aggregate loss is not so much when i go to sell..

so around 5 years is realistic at this point.

Most likely after this lease finishes. Only started a month ago, on a 3 year lease.

I changed to the Subaru Liberty GT B.Spec already..

just short of 3 years, more 2.5 years.

However, the Euro is still around.. I just don't drive it.

3-4 years i guess, may get a second car within that time and keep both :)

I think same with me - I will still have the car for 10 years (maybe!) but not be driving it as much.

yep the missus will be getting it as a family car after 2 years, so it will be around for a while.

I plan to keep mine about 5+ years. No reason to sell it unless circumstances severely change. Why not keep the car in top condition while you own it, and make it last the distance.

VirIIx - Top car you have by the way. The spec B's are a treat.

Probably about 10 years (at least 7).

I intentionally bought a car with everything I liked for the long haul...

Cars change every year, if it's good, and you're happy.. may as well get your money's worth :]
