I'd keep the V8, because, well, it's a V8.

In my opinion, stick the ELGT's and EL leather into the EB, and keep the V8...

You already know my opinion mate! I love the EB, I think its the black windows against the maroon colour that sets it off, especially when you have the EL GT's on it! Plus the EB is a Fairmont whereas the EL is base model.
I know you had some trouble selling the EL, maybe post it in the For Sale section on these forums.

If it was a weekender, no question keep the EB, but for a daily I would personally sell the EB and keep the EL - lower kays, 6 years newer, they drive well and you have airbag/s and possibly ABS.

EL no questions, eb v8 is slower, drinks more, only benifet is noise, but the noise does not give mercy to your pocket!
