How true, I would take a big hit selling the thing at this point. I am at the point where if I could sell it for $6k and take a hit or keep putting money into it. Because it will be a $20k car in another 2-3 years, with a book value of just under $5k. I keep running into problems, why just today I found two more. I have to decided if my efforts would be better spent on a 1999 or newer W210. Sure the upfront cost would be greater but long term I think I would come out ahead. Also time is an important factor, I can't get nice Saturdays spent under a car back.
