keep G garaged for a year ?
Sell it right away (well, maybe in the spring for a better market)
Say you are paying $500 a month, for one year, that's $6000. I assume your insurance is very high (either that or you got busted with a fake id or something), so say $1300+ for insurance, that's $7300, I'll assume you aren't driving it, so I won't add gass or maintenance.
Put that $7300 in an orange savings account, and you'd at the very least be making 4.40%, for a year that's $321. That's bare minumum, you could put that money in a CD, etc for more.
You obviously have adjusted to your payment now, so consider the money spent, sell the car, put any profit + payments into an investment. You'll come out ahead, and ready for the new coupe (plus some taillight mods, lol)
Just my 40 cents

IMO, if you're only going to sell it later on might as well do it now, less depreciation.
Sorry to hear of your 'bad luck'.

:O! if you paid full and its brand new keep it. can't you just d/c the battery if you're not driving it for more than 30 days? if you're leasing or something like that its a good idea to sell it and get another one a year later. BUT!! ya its just i like to be the only owner of a new G to keep it!

can't even drive to school/work?
i'm not sure if i can drive to school/work yet. I have to go to court later, and Ilive in an apt. on right next to campus so i have no where to drive. p.s. - never disobeying the law again. +1 to myself.
i dunno bout you but if you dont plan on driving it at all, sell it. but u can still take it out, just be careful!!! my buddy was on a DUI and had his licensed revoked but still drove, never got pulled over, never got in an accident. its risky but not too hard ot get away with
