Definitely not for me, if I can't drive it when I want without crushing it's value I don't want to own it.
If I had the money to do that back in '91 I would have, and had the thing as a fixture and conversation piece in my party room. Also, those 40 miles would have been glorious.... Also, if I had the money to do that back then, I could have afforded more than saving up for the new E36, as I did back then.
