lol sorry im chinese btw. =P but yeah it said failing transfercase but i think ill return it to the dealer because on the contract it says "we further acknowledge that we may be subject to a fine not exceeding 2,500 and imprionment of not more than 2 yrs for any false statement that we make on this application and certify that all information is true and correct." so does that mean if they dont take it back they can get locked up because they told me it was stock witch it wasn't. I found the old owner and found out i had cams and exedy twin plate..

a dealer wouldnt know that it had those 2 things unless the old owner told them. sorry but that wont help you. and even if you try to say the were in there they can say you put them in.

$8000 to replace what? The ACD? If your transfer case is broken.. uhh, its not like it'll work 'fine' without it..

This thread almost seems kinda like spam..

Yes you can trade it in, even if it's still being financed. I owed like 11k on the mini, the dealer offered around 16k and i put the difference as a partial downpayment on the evo.

The evo almost killed you? Usually its the other way around.

hahahz +100 on that!
yeah our cars are ultimate performance machines but you cant expect it to not fault at all. I had a similar situation during the snow storm last week around the NE but learned quickly after that mistake. Thankfully, I didnt have to pay for any damages.
