local Pittsburgh Meet
It would be very difficult for me to sell my Evo because there is nothing else out there quite like it. My issue is that I don't want to put the miles on it. Problem is that I like driving it too much. I purposely take longer routes just to extend the drive. I'm already at 43,800 miles 
.
I'm seriously debating on buying a cheap junker in need of body work but with good fuel economy and a good drivetrain. Maybe something like Mr. Tim's Honda
. Looking at like 2 grand or less - 1 grand would be ideal.

.. anyways, i average 32/34 mpg and its a twin cam!! you just have to look. I do that all the time, i buy beaters drive them and sell them for twice what i paid. This car on auto trader goes for $3700.00 ... not sure if i would sell it though 
thats kinda steep..
I would say that the FMV on that car is only going to be like $14,500 for retail. which would put you around $10,000 for a trade in.. tell me if im wrong, but i have been down this alley before and been screwed sidewayzz with a giant stick... picture that

everyone has been high. the dealer was trying to get me to bite on $10,000 trade in. I've only had the car for a year, and that would leave me with neg. equity. i would like to get him up around 14 so i can cancel my old loan, but from your responses i just might sell it myself. that being said, anyone want a daily driver?

almost made me cry, but it was traded for an evo so 
i would attempt to outright sell it, much better results. takes a little more time, but is really worth your pocket book..
aim for like 14 and take 13 a little loss to move something might be ok.
Oh, and for a beater car.

No, but honestly i need to send my friend there. he keeps getting raped by dealers for ****ty *** cars. hes had 3 cars and each one gets progressively worse. right now hes driving a 95 cavalier with 140,000 miles, paid $2,500 and its f'd. the transmission is beat and who know about the engine. for how many miles he was running it with low tranny fluid and he never changes the oil just tops it off. one problem is he never asks questions until something is broken. like the oil, he just puts more in.

wow petey, 35g in 4 years? that absolutely blows. i might go the _____ (enter POS here) route for me, but this is going to be her car. i'll wait until I get it, because i'm superstitious when it comes to mentioning things i am going to buy, but i will post pictures up in about a month (the wedding is in july). as a teaser, its the same manufacturer- but it unfortunately does not include the 'M'.

Hmmm....I might have to hit that up. I will have to see what the plans are but if I can swing it I will be there for sure. I'll skip that other thing tonight and shoot for the waterfront meet tomorrow. That is pretty close to my bro's place too so should be able to do that. I can't see why not so might as well add me to the list.
