UPDATE HELP! should i get a 03' BMW?NO imgetting a s2k!!!
 
EDIT

thanks everyone for the help! i went and test drove a s2k today

at first it was like this is nice and then vtec kicked in nd DAMMNNNN no wonder they make so many vtec stickers!!! because it hit hard, ive driven my friends prelude but this was so much stronger and i loved it and ive always wanted one so why not??


i went and talked to the bank
and it turns out they have something called a "student car loan"

and since ive paid for my scion on time every month my credit is bulding up and i can get a student car loan with a bomb rate all by myself!! no stupid cosigner


so i will b trading my baby in and getting a nice s2k and il only pay $10 more than im paying now, and ive saved enough to pay insurance for a year so i wont have that to worry about anymore so im good! im excited


but no lie i will miss my scion so much

but she is for sale for $13,000
with 86,000 miles I KNOW its alot of miles but they are alllllll highway miles all in socal (no stupid mountains)
and she runs great there isnt a doubt in my mind that doesnt think she will go beyond 200,000 miles

so if anyone is interested let me know (PM me!), if no one buys it i guess il just trade her in

il attempted posting this last part in the classified section but forwhatever reason i cant..it weird
























here is a picture of her https://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b...a/IMG_7888.jpg

the z4 is nice, but i herd that its not "great" if you have the money to put towards a bmw then go for it. but i doubt that insurance is cheaper someone is bs'ing you there. also take into consideration that a bmw will cost more to maintain and will need to be maintained a lot mor than a toyota scion. you can still double that mileage on your tC and it will still run. thats my opinion, but do what ya want man.

The tC isn't the manliest car in the world...but the Z4 is just ___. Thats a chick car, dude. Keep your tC. The only way it'd be cool is if the Z4 was insanely fast...which it's not.

tCtCtC 09-16-2008 11:10 PM

the z4's nose it to big

Yanki01 09-16-2008 11:24 PM

s200 is like gazillion times better than the z4..but if you were gonna trade...get the 350Z which has a v6 power plant that gets same if not better mpg than the tC.

tcCALI 09-17-2008 12:53 AM

never buy a used german car, and especially BMW cause everyone that drives one drives it like crazy....

jBoRiCuA 09-17-2008 12:56 AM

the tc is gonna be a nicer and cheaper project. the z4 is gonna cost you to make it look nice plus i dont like paddle shifters

tcCALI 09-17-2008 01:16 AM

ohhh and dont forget the maintenance.

datdude1119 09-17-2008 03:37 AM

hmmm all very good points, i love the s2k but ive never driven one..how fast are they?? any specific one i should look at?? specific year?

toeveryhour 09-17-2008 03:46 AM

eh i would stick with your car.

Aspekt 09-17-2008 04:07 AM

i would keep the scion for sure, and pretty much with the same reason everyone have mentioned so far,

i have just met a guy at the dealer he was driving a 350Z, and he say he need a second car because 350z was too small to fit anything in it, and some other thing he was complaining about,

and i have heard s2000 roll over rating is very bad... few years back, one of my friend passed away in an accident which he fliped his s2000.
