Default Good Deal Bad Deal?

I have a spec tC with 10kmi and I went to a toyota dealership today and saw the rs3.0. I wanted to trade it in and they said my car was worth 15000 when I only paid 16999 for it. They inspected the car and said it was in ship shape and thats how much they said it was worth. Onyl thing is I'll be paying at least 40 to 50 dollars more on my monthly payments. Should I go for it?

IMO, I feel that is something that is up to you. If you really like the RS 3.0 more than your tC now, and 40-50 bucks more a month isnt gonna hurt your budget, then why not. Do what makes you happy. Good luck with your decision.

Do it. BTw what dealer did you shop at? You might be able to shop another to see if you get better money for your trade in? Just a thought. I know they dont bend on the pricing of a new one, but mayeb they can on the trade

I think that's a pretty good deal and like everyone else said if you can afford the extra 40 to 50 bucks a month then why not. If it will make you happy go fot it , I say.

It is a pretty Hot lookin tC....

Mr boss guy also told us he also can guarantee that the payments would be between 412 to 420 a month. Now is this possible even though he doesn't know our credit score? Whats also holding me back is the rs is a manual and I dont know how to drive stick. I don't want to crash it the 2nd or 3rd day I have it by stalling out and hitting another car! haha. I don't know what to do.

I wanted a stick, but I eat, drink and text message while driving so I do alot of knee steering. Can't do that with a 5 speed
They are fun to drive tho. I still regret getting an auto.
