Default Please don't sell it!

Hi everyone. I have a problem, my good friend is the proud owner of a T3 TS50 5spd manual, in blueprint with premium brake and sound package.
My problem is that he's thinking of selling it! His reasons are that the area he lives in isn't overly repitable(sp) and has to park it it his fathers. He's just about completed his 5 year build XB GT Coupe, He also has a XB Ute which he's just about finished for his work hack. His missus has a toyota prado, and his father and him are also half share owners in a 1999 supercharged V6 mustang - So he has a problem with parking, as the other side of his fathers garage is filled with a BF GT (Yes very Ford family BTW). The Mustang is at his brothers work as it can be tucked in a corner there.
MY problem is I don't want him to sell it but can't really back up my opinion! I love the car to bits, I think its a fantastic future inverstment but I can completely see his point. It wouldn't be a problem if I had the 50+k needed to own it else it would be in my garage, but I still think he will regret selling it for those reasons alone.

Anyone got anything convincing I could throw at him to stop him from selling it?

PS I know this sorta sounds like a bit of a brag "My mates got this etc etc" but its not. Yes he's a lucky man but he does work bloody hard for what he's got, But the selling of this car really does concern/upset me and it's not just because I would like to own it, I think he is making a mistake, and I like to talk him out of it before it's to late.
