Why you trading the X in? I have a bone stock IX with a tune and it runs great...I know its not the same car and all...but hopefully the same concept...plus I hear they run like sh*t in stock form before tune...so how much worse can it run...lol...

You're upside down so I don't see how your payment is going to be much lower on your next car unless you are shopping for $14k econo-boxes.

I'm curious to see what they'd offer- hopefully more than $25k. I'm really thinking about getting a 2008 Corvette at 0.0 percent offer they have right now (keeping the evo X). $800 payments make me nervous though.

Refinance the car! I did my STI and went from 505.00 to 450.00 I also have the loan out for 5 years!
