How do you cope once its gone

For those of you that have sold your csl's...how do you cope
My heart says to keep and my head says to sell for a practical diesel due to increased mileage and practicality

This is the second time i've tried to sell in 2yrs. I changed my mind back then and enjoyed a another year

You don't

Buy a cheap run around & keep the csl.

Good advice by Peter...after my 1st track day is the CSL last month don't think I could ever sell. Wouldn't know what to change for to be honest...911 GT3 RS maybe, if my numbers come up that is.

I'll tell you early next year, but I fear that it won't be difficult to say good bye

It's a car ... you'll get over it.

I've only ever been emotionally attached to a car when it's actually under my ownership ... once sold the feeling disappears with it.

I've always moved up a rung of the performance ladder with each car so its been something to look forward to. Its hard to think what will beat the CSL for all round ability at the price. I drive a Smart around to keep the mileage down!

Same here and there is nothing at the moment, than can compare to the csl. What other car can you do this with?

1. You can load it up and go on holiday;
2. Stick the kids in the back;
3. Track it;
4. Do 170mph + (on track of course..)
4. Limited edition so you hardly see any others;
5. Not much depreciation compared to some cars;
6. A well looked after CSL may appreciate in years to come.

Until another car comes along that can do all, the csl will be staying with me.
