I said it before and again. Only you can choose.
but you are comparing apples to oranges. Sorry for all the chevy fans, but they do not have a good track record except for a few cars. Celica is not the greatest out there, but you already have it. so if you get your chevy, whats next. are you going to swap, modify, or start over? with any car you get, there is always the feeling of getting nickel and dimed to death. Any used car will do this. For no problems, new ones come with warranty, yup you lose money but, at least you know it will be covered to an extent. and this is my personal flavor, i would never buy anything but an import vehicle. (Scion, Lexus, Toyota). Yes im a fan of the japanese.... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Someone should make this their sig why don't you make it you're own? Basically what everyone else here has said, it's you're choice 95st. If you NEED convincing from OTHER PEOPLE on wheather YOU should keep YOU'RE OWN car, then mabe getting a different car isn't a bad idea. You are going to be the one buying and dealing w/ the car for X amount of time anyway. Might as well be something you're happy with. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

This is probably the lamest thread i've seen. A true car enthusiast shouldn't be asking others what car to drive. Decide whats right for you: looks, speed, functionality, and/or price, and buy the car that fits that category. |

Why is this thread still going....... This member just picked up a st185 clip and is now doing a swap. I think he is keeping his car. This thread should be closed.
