Alright heres the deal...i know im going to regret it but im debating on selling my evo IX. I understand the market is not at its highest point right now but I am not 100% set on selling it either. I am an 18year old student and i am addicted to modding. I am tired of spending money and want to settle down. I also live in a populated area wear driving a manual transmission everyday is not the most fun.

Car options?

*Something like a small SUV, put some rims and a nice system in it

*luxury car, maybe 3 series or 4 door benz

What do you guys think? Nothing to expensive, something that will look nice and have the "baller" status if you will

 

just keep it u'll regret letting it go bad.

 

Settle down @18? Not for nothing, but what the hell is wrong with you? You think you have it bad driving a stick in Fl? I live in NYC and I would never get rid of my EVO. At least until something better comes along.

 

Yeah I can't imagine living in NYC and driving an evo everyday to work. I'll bound to hit someone or something in no time .

 

Well its just i have a sport bike for speed, my dads got a vanquish s that i can drive so its not th speed i want to get rid of. Its the constant repair. I have had mechanical problems like non other, i have to repair the clutch at 15,000 miles and it seems as if every time i mod something i have to mod another.

 

anyone else?

 

My thoughts are like SLVr_AMS said you will find yourself regretting your decision to get something else. I was in the same situation as you about a year ago decided to just pay of the evo and keep it couldn't be happier. Good luck with your decision.

 

Thanks...and the evo is paid off already so that parts not bothering me.

 

Keep It Man

 

LEXUS IS250 or IS350 or G37

 

^^ those are good opinions, i didnt even think of those yet. Thanks

 

I'd get a Lexus IS-F

Mercedes C63 AMG

BMW M3

Maybe an Audi RS4


These are the only sedans I would trade my evo for.


If you want something not too expensive then

Lexus IS350
BMW 335
MB C350

 

ya i didnt want to get to expensive i didnt want to spend more than id get for mine. KBB right now is clsoe to $30,000. and im not looking for new off the lot, used and certified are fine.

 

Edit: Saw your post of your price at ~30k. That limits you a lot

Honestly, if your dad has a Vanquish that he lets you drive decently and you have your bike for speed, I'd go with an SUV or a truck. And then that all comes to test driving and personal opinion.

Either that, or I'd get a basic DD (Civic, Integra, etc) and put the money in the bank to buy a house/condo. At your age an extra 10-15k is a lot to have, especially since I would guess your family still pays for a lot of your expenses (which isn't a bad thing).

 

Thats what i was thinking about just a smaller SUV. G35 is deffinitely and option now and those you can find for pretty cheap. My price range is 30,000 and less. Its not a huge budget i know but ill start to save money when i dont mod as much. Smaller SUV would be like the new grand cherokees or commanders....with some rims they look decent. And they have that lifelong warrenty now which i love ha.
