Default Should I sell her and upgrade? Or enjoy the benefits of an older car?

I kinda wanna sell her and I kinda don't

Reasons to keep it:
Reliable
No problems
It's a premium package
I got a good deal on it that I can respect it like a real car, but not like a princess
It's convenient cause its already in my driveway
It's a California car (highway miles)

Reasons I wanna let it go:
This model year is starting to look dated to me
It's got a lot of miles (no signs of stopping though)
It has cosmetic dings, small dents, and scratches on its body which makes me feel a little bit of insecurity when driving. That's just me though, I'm weird like that, like for example; I like wearing hoodies, t-shirts, jeans, and beat up converse chuck Taylor shoes, but underneath all that I wear Jay Crew boxers and Tommy Hilfiger socks. Weird right?

If I did let her go I might get a 2006+ Audi. Or I might be forced to take on another make and model car.
I might be able to keep her though, while also still being able to purchase a newer looking vehicle but a different brand not an audi.

Well that's that, I hope you guys can relate with me, hopefully you could give me some advice or some input. Thanks

So what car is this? I'm gonna guess, 1997 Honda Civic.

I sold my B5 and got a B7 S4. While I don't regret the S4, I surely miss my B5

If I get a civic it would have to be at least an '05+
I could get a brand new civic, but I'm not a civic kinda guy, but who knows unless you try it first, right? But no, as of this very moment I'm not an economy car kinda guy. Maybe I should be though. I have plenty of time to try I suppose

At least you didn't mention a Hyundai or Kia or something... I must say though that both those brands have an elevated reputation in comparison to their status from roughly only a decade ago. I've owned two hyundai's from that time.

Pretty sure he's driving a B5 A4... just a guess based on where he started this thread...
