Any other 5th Gen V6ers starting to feel the joy fade? I would have never thought I'd be saying this. I thought I'd keep it forever, & It is still possible that I will. I still get a permagrin when I drive it. But I have lost the desire to modify, race or even wash & detail it. I have also even toyed with the thought of selling it. Part of it is me getting older & just not feeling up to doing some of those things like & used to. Part of it is the fact that the new V6's render it not competitive on the track combined with me feeling my skills declining & as well as my ability to take the heat that comes with many race days. I can't stand the thought of selling it to someone who would not appreciate her history or take care of her like I have. And it is getting to be quite old now; still low mileage (nearing 40K) and runs like a dream. It has not had the timing chain done yet & no signs at all it is needed. It has never used a drop of oil & has always run great even much faster than it should have been bone stock. But........

Anyway, just wondering if other 5th gen V6 folks are feeling the same way.
