Default Should I sell my EF9 b20vtec??

First of all I don't want any people getting sore about me considering selling my car. If anything I love this car. I built it from the ground up over the past four years.
SPECS:
1990 Civic Si clean title 83k
ext:EF9 front conv, rear wing, taillights, rear bumper w/lip, 00' Milano Red paint

int: Flawless Si Seats, EF9 rear seats covered with Si fab (to match front w/headrest)

susp: EF9 front brakes, rear disc, KYB NEW SPEC R struts (JDM)

roller: Mugen RNR's mint

eng: B20 w/ B16B CTR head held by HASPORT mounts, FGK jasma header, full SiR catback and muff. Spoon PR3 ECU,HASPORT vtec sub-harness
YS1 LSD

This car is mint and I love the hell out of it.
I have a guy that wants to give me $7500 for it..??..
All of my friends have newer cars and they keep telling me to sell it but I kinda feel reluctaint. Maybe it's just me..

Does anyone have any advice for me. I know that I will never get back what I put into it but at the same time I don't have a problem with never selling it. I just need the opinion of other EF fans because I don't want to make a big mistake by getting rid of it.

Nice car. Nice kill. $7500 is a good bit of money, but you'll probably wind up regreting it if you sell it.

its really up to you. You cant tell me if a bunch of people on here say sell it, even though you honestly want to keep it, that you would sell it? or the other way around? I think your car has a nice set up but how much money have you put into that car? I dont know if you put over 7500 into it but i know that modding your car is very expensive and if you want to sell your car you most likely wont make a profit. I personally will run my 91 civic si lsvtec into the ground if i have to. I put too much time, money, sweat, and blood into that car to just sell to some guy and not get all the money i spent on it back. Most of the time its not worth it to sell your modded car unless your getting out of the game for good.

keep it - 11 votes

sell it - 1/2 votes

then again this from the ef forum in h-t

i was arguing with someone that owned a 99 prelude that said his car looked better than mine. 99% of people would agree with that, but i LOVE 88-91s. theirs just something sexy about an ef.

my friend has a boosted gsr 91 hatch, and he was thinking about selling it for a 99-00 si. turns out he just saved a little and took out a small loan and bought the si while keeping the hatch.

thats what i would do

everyone is saying this, so ill say it to..."KEEP IT, but its up to you"

let us know what you decide

if you built it. you should keep it. if you spent all that money for they conversions. keep it. doesn't matter what other people say. don't let all the time you spent on your EF9 go for $7,500.00. just keep it.
