    Well, I'm thinking about letting mine go. It mostly sits in backyard cause I have a 2014 fusion and my pickup and when I go somewhere my wife usually goes too and she don't like the little car cause it sits too low to ground and if someone hit us it would not protect her much. I use to drive all time to work but I've been retired now for almost four years and start it up now and then and drive it a little. I still love driving it but since i don't much now, I'd hate to see it go to waste being all work I put into it and new windshield here couple months ago so I'll probably post it up when spring gets here and can come get it. Still runs great and only has 205,000 on it. So sorry, yea i'm sure I'll be leaving.

Its a ton of fun to drive and I fit in it perfectly and I'm 6'2". I'm in.[ATTACH=CONFIG]19087[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]19088[/ATTACH]

        The dark one was my first that I painted and fluffed up and the white is my current that I just painted.
        Love em!

          I'm not committing to 'life', but I'll probably keep mine as long as it's feasible.

          Really don't have any desire to upgrade as this is the newest car I own ('93),

            Been into Festivas since 2001. Can't see any reason to change at the moment. Drove my daughter's '91 today... makes me want to get my project car finished even more.

              Lol Ian. I did the same thing this evening with Mom's 91 (my old car). She was having an issue and took it out for a spin to see what it was. Damn, I miss driving that thing. Back to the garage for me to finish some stuff I started today on my car. I don't think I could even sell the car for what I will have into it when completed. Labor of love I guess!!!

                    Will be driving a Festiva for as long as I can fix it. But at age 55, I dislike working on cars more and more. Have two Festivas and four parts cars. So I'm fixed for a long time.
