What would you do?

Ok I am trying to make a decision and I am getting different answers from friends. I had a 99 Lexus gs300 until I traded it in back in June of 2003 for a brand new 2003 Civic coupe Ex. I traded it in because I had gotten engaged and had a few other bills I needed to pay off, so I wanted a car with a cheap car payment, good gas mileage etc. So that’s why I bought the civic. I’ve had everything paid off for a few months now and I am debating on getting rid of my civic and getting another Lexus GS or maybe even a BMW 3 series. Right now I have hayame coilovers and the camber kit sitting in my room. I have not put it in yet because I have not decided if I am going to keep the car yet heh. Here are my options

1 Keep the civic and do some mods, susp wheels etc.

2 Sell the mods I have in my room. Pay off as much of the balance as I can on the civic, sell it this summer, and buy a new car.

I just think that rather than spending the money on mods, I can put that money towards a nicer car. What do you guys/girls think??

if you sell the civic, you are gonna lose money selling it this early...so if you dont mind taking a hit like that, then sell the parts and do it

What i plan on doing if i sell it is, to pay off my balance to a point under what i could sell it for, so when i sell i either break even or get some of my money back.

If you have the money, go for it. Kinda big jump from a civic to a BMW though,... I wish I had this problem.



I would wait till the new Covette z06 comes out, sure it is 50,000-60,00 $ but who can complain about the 500 horsies?
