Please Help Me!!

I am thinking about trading in my '03 Evo for a Graphite MR. I have about $6,000 invested into my car putting out about 350WHP. I can get the Graphite MR for sticker and they will give me $26k for my car with all mods. I dont know if I should do it I pay $370/mo payments would go up about $150 which I can afford but doesnt give me a ton of room for other stuff. I like the 6 spd. I liek the Graphite I like the light weight wheels, feel more comfortable about the drivetrain on the MR, and some other features but then I think about how much money I end up out and with that money could buy a bigger turbo, if TC went rebuild it much stronger, and do the suspension. IDK this is driving me insane it would be nice to have the MR...what you guyz think????

Wait for the evo nine as you will be less turned around in your current car, the current specs on the MR will be carried over and available on the standard evo nine and more....my 2c

i'd say sell private, see what you can get for it and then get the 05...or if possible ...wait for the IX....isn't it coming out like in June, July of 05?

trading in sucks...


IX same setup as MR, but possibly over 300 horses.....but man....i'm guessin it's gonna be selling for 35K plus.......

good luck man...
