Default Why is everyone selling their ITRs?

I hope these are the main reasons:

1. Theft/Vandalism is too much a hassle to deal with
2. Upgrading to a better car

If people are selling simply because they're bored or don't think this car is up to par, then I'd be really disappointed. Everytime I hit the track or the twisties, I realize why I love mine.

Well...a few reasons. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my ITR, but I'm definately tired of feeling I need to treat her like a Ferrari. I mean, I DO treat my car good, but I'm seriously tired of all the threads of theft and vandalism. It's just sickening to me.

I will be switching to a WRX. Mostly because it would be a good daily driver for me here in the Midwest. I'm keeping my hybrid to have some fun with. I'm just going to drive the **** out of a WRX and park it where I feel like it. It's an ugly car so maybe the riceboys and haters will leave it alone.

Yeah, yeah. me. I do think it's an ugly car, but that's okay. I'm not trading for one based on looks.

I am not selling at all, especially for those reasons. Get a better car but keep the R.
