I've had my car for 12.5 years now. I never outgrew it because I'm basically a 14 year old with bills though the car has gone through a few different styles over the years. It's honestly not even the right car for the kind of driving I like but it's close enough. I also saved it from being parted out and scrapped so I've got a bit of a weird attachment to it. By any measured performance metric it's terrible but imo how a car feels to drive is so much more important. It's small and has pop up headlights and an obnoxious blow off valve and stupid green wheels and underglow and it feels very basic and connected. I like the stuff that reminds of how old it is like the sound it makes when you shut the door with the window down. I also love that I've been through it so many times that I know loads about how it works and how things are set up. Though that also means it was my fault when I later have to deal with something I did wrong. It's also not worth anything to sell so even though I don't use it a ton it's easier to justify keeping it.
