Default Going back to stock

Out of curiosity...

for CL members who have modded their GS2 physically, in terms of lowered suspension, wheels, kits etc..

Do you guys have any plans to keep the car as it is (modded) for the next 15 - 20years? or will eventually go back to stock considering the growing family members that you may have in future (kids) or when you grow older?

Or

With the modded GS2, do you still allow passngers in the rear (especially lowered rides)

I really love this car and would love to keep it timelessly even for the next 30 years as the quality and design WILL NOT go out of style. We as 50yr olds would still look good driving around in this elegant vehicle regardless modded or stock

I will probably still be modding my gs 30 years ffom n and be rockin a "old guys rule" decal. I love the car but not in stock form. the stock lines need a lite enhancement and I can not driive around in a non lowered car anymore unless it is a suv. I have passenges in my car all the time now. it seems the more I mod the more I enjoy driving it ad sharing it with others

i do plan to keep the car for as long as possible. i do plan for the mods to come off in about 2-3 years. i've kept a good set of springs, so i may just keep her lowered a tad. i've also attained a good set of stockies, so she can roll on those as well.

as for passengers, thats a good question. currently, my passengers in the back dont way more than 50 lbs each!
