If you were rich, would you keep your J-bod?

I've been thinkin about this lately and i'm wanting some opinions. If you were rich would you still have your Z, or any other j-body? I see on like MTV cribs with all these rich basketball and popstars with these cady's and 70,000 dollar cars, and i was just thinkin that if i was rich i'd keep the cavy and pimp it out for something fun to drive rather then flashing money all over the place. Maybe its just me.

·Sure would, take both of 'em and make them even more beautiful. If I was rich I wouldn't flash it around at all. I'd maybe buy another "nicer" car and get a nice house and save the rest.
Being rich and flashing your wealth around is the biggest way to be a cocky lil bastard. I hate that. If I was rich, I would definately keep my little Sunbird. I would just bring it up to my 'vision' for it. I would buy my own house, not way too friggen fancy, just enough for me to live a comfortable life. Buy the few cars I want in life, for regular use or just for fun (converted KITT trans am, Delorean, Mr. Bean car...etc), Have a garage for them with the house, and dump the rest into the bank, trust funds, whatever. I'd probably keep my job too, just to give me something to do all week since I get bored real quick and easy. Having a lot of money doesn't mean one HAS to buy the most expensive shit out there...to be quite honest I have no interest in the Benz's and BMW's and all them other fancy expensive cars. They're useless to me. I'm a down to earth person, no need for an out of this world life.

my j-bod would becomea field car. also if I was rich, I would buy a car hauler, and buy 10 3rd gens a week, and on saturday take them to the crusher and crush 'em!! then I would set them on fire!

Yeah, I'd likely keep the J-car either as a dedicated autox car, or else as a winter/daily driver that I'd not be worried about if it got hit or something. Basically something to keep the miles off the other vehicles. :lol:

id keep it and fix it up like it was new and probably just drive it every now and then...keep it for sentimental reasons, seeing as how it is my first car and all

Id keep it, do it up the best i could, drop the biggest engine i could into it, then id have to agree with girlracer in id buy a skyline, but id also buy an older van (yes i said a van you know like the A-team Van lol) do it up to a T, throw like 40 Optima Batteries, 15 18" Subwoofers with like 30 amps, and go for the world DB record.
