yeap already. i change my mind to much to get into a brand new car with payments.
so im selling it hoping to buy a cheap car.. save up some money..then every 6 months buy something else.
i think thats what would keep me satisfied. anybody what to buy? lol

 

Why didn't you lease the car to begin with if you plan on changing cars every so often? But good luck on your new ride.... Depends on your budget, insurance etc. GTI, SI, MS3, tC1 perhaps?

 

Did not know this was possible!

Now i can sell mine when the FT-86 or FR-S comes out :D!!

 

well the plan was i was gonna keep it for 3 years or so and i made a whole list of everything i want to do. then i changed my mind. so to start off my budget is 3k max. and every 6 months will increase. so i can buy me something better every 6 month or get like twin jet skis or something.

 

If you are planning to buy a beater every few months, just go buy a gen5 civic (92-95) and pray it wasn't modded to hell. You can keep that on the road for years while you save money...

 

If you plan on trading it in for the new Scion FR-S, plan to pay as much off as you can on your tC2 because it will only translate to a higher monthly payment. What dealers do is carry over the balance over the existing loan, and add the new the new one.
This will bury you even more. Plus you are more than likely going to have a hefty down payment ($3000+) to keep the the new monthly payments or suffer with a $400+ monthly payment lower for a new car.
Good luck...

Maybe better to get a used cars if you'll be changing the car that often.
Let us know for how much you are able to sell your tC2.

 

If your gonna do that make sure you find someone to take over your lease cuz if you trade the tc for the Fr-s, whatever its gonna be called, you gonna basically have 2 monthly payments.

 

No Civics!!! Sorry. cant stand them things.

Not going to get into the FR-S. #1 I'm trying to get out of payments and #2 i dont find it as attractive as most do.

yea what im gonna do. i have it listed at 22k with everything (including all stock parts i took off) may take awhile to sell so il let you guys know.

Anything on the tC2 worth selling? Part out?
PM me.

 

Have you tried refinancing? Extending your loan to possibly 72 months which is bad but to higher interest over the life of the loan, but payments will be cheaper. I am sure you are going to get retail value since the car isn't 1 year old yet, so the value hasn't depreciated, unless you have a ton of miles on the car.

 

you must be making a lot of money to be switching cars every 6 months. i mean, the value of your car depreciates most the first year. not only that, but paying dmv with all those titles and such.....

 

No not parting anything out..

It's not that I can't afford it. Its just.. I guess I pressed all its bells and whistles (metaphorically speaking) and I'm ready for something else. Also tired of payments and most likely getting something paid off.

And I'm not buying brand new cars every 6 months. My last two I took over peoples payments. Im gonna buy something cheap first and every 6 months or so I'll save up enough money sell that car and buy something better.

Alot better than paying 700 a month (note+insurance) with one car for a few years. Than saving 600 more dollars a month and buying different cars every so often

I'm no

 

Damn! Me and my wife pay about 700 for her xB and my tC combined (note and insurance)

 

yea when i bought this i was 19 with just enough credit to get and and only 2k down. and insurance. idk because i dont have any wrecks or tickets on my record. and it was the cheapest stuff i can find

 

I have also been thinking of selling mine. Instead I will keep it until a later date and just buy a smaller cheap car. I spent way to much on this one and if I tried to sell it I would lose 7-10k.

 

You dont have any mods on it yet?

 

why would you wnt to lease a car? you're paying just under an actual car payment, yet you still have to pay for all maintenance, purchase insurance and be liable for everything. to me that's not economical (that's like renting a house for 600/month when you can guy a house for 700/month)

 

just what listed on my signature. havent bought any performance because ive been thinking about doing this for awhile now. and made no since to add more to my car when i was just going to sell it.

 

Leasing is a great way to lower your monthly payment and get
more for your money, because you’re not paying for the full value
of the vehicle. Instead, you pay for the portion of the vehicle’s life
you use plus a rent charge, and official fees and taxes. You are
also responsible for the cost of maintenance and insurance, and
any applicable excess wear and use charges.

Dude, leasing is nothing like renting, due your research on it. I am not going to sit here and compare the two. What I am reading is that he wants to switch cars every few months or less than a year or two. With a lease he can still have fun with the car, give the car up at the end of the lease, and get a different car or buy it. You are paying less monthly payments, which mean you are saving $$, plus your not paying full cars value. Sure it's not his, but he still add rims/tires etc, just have to convert it back to stock.

Plus, your are complaining about maintenance. I don't see him doing a lot of maintenance. A oil change, and perhaps a tire change, depending on his driving habits. A brand new car shouldn't break down within 12,00 miles or however long he leases the car at least with a reliable car like toyota/scion. Insurance is mandatory to begin with, unless you are driving illegally. Also with a lease, he doesn't have to wait around for a buyer to buy his car like he is doing right now. He might not have any buyers, and still sit for weeks, months or years to sell his car. Talk to your dealer about buying vs leasing or look it up before you get your next car.
