Default New car for Tc thats been crashed 2's

Soo my first accident was head on going roughly 10 mph. No biggie got it fixed mostly cosmetic and a new radiator. Next accident dropped my new grlfriend off at her house and the insane mother F***** ex boyfriend decides to back his blazer into mine!!!! Incredible story I know. So now my parents and relatives are telling me to trade in the car and get a different used car. Only becuz its no good to have a car get into 2 accidents further downt the road there will be problems they say. OK so ive always wanted the Tc in the manual, but I"m already in love with the one have now. Got my intake, exhasut, tinted windows, lowering springs, custom grill, smoke t-lights. Its the hottness, so I dont know, should I go along and get another car? Or should I just keep what I have? What would you guys do? Thanx A Lot for the FeedBack

Baseball bat + ex-boyfriend.

The car's already had two accidents' damage, why would it be any wiser to sell right now than later on when it'll be older but still have two accidents' worth of stuff?

^baseball bat+ ex-boyfriend+ blazer= sweet revenge...

stay with it coz you know if you sell or trade that you get low value for it because it has two accidents already... my suggestion is stay with it and never park behind or even near by an ex-boyfriend... he's just jealous because u have a nice ___ car, and the girl of his dreams... hehehehehe

I think basically what people are tellin him is that it may have problems you don't know about now, so he should sell it before it has problems, kinda screwing someone else who will prob end up buying it and not know about the previous history of it till it has problems down the road.its kinda messed up but i can understand why people are telling you to sell it. if you still have the stock stuff just swap all the aftermarket stuff back out and then put it into your new(used) tC

10mph wreck, and a 5-10mph car backing into you. I don't see how much damage there could be to motivate you enough to sell it. What kind of long term damage could there possibly be from those speeds?

Stick with it. The 'different used car' may have undocumented accidents that worse that what your tC's been through. IMO

my suggestion would be keep it and just be careful where you park your car. if you get a used car, youll never know what its been through. you could also trade it in for a used tc. just my 02. good luck.
