Well I think my dad has been messing with me the whole time. I have been looking at getting a new car since December. My dad has been like ok well lets do it sometime in the near future (that was in December). Well it is now May and still no new car. With all this time to think, I have been thinking in the long run it might be better to keep my car and turbo it (after the summer I will have roughly $10,000 cash in my bank account). I planned on trading my civic in on a new car and maybe using some of the cash for a down payment. Would it be more reasonable to go ahead and trade in for a 2004-2005 WRX or just keep the civic and fix the problems and turbo it? I am in a bind and I don't know what to do. Please post up some ideas to the entire situation. DAMN I HATE **** LIKE THIS.

If your stock seats give you lower back pains like they do for me, buy a new car.

That would be a tough call..... If your dad is going to get you a car then why not wait it out and turbo this one that way you will have 2 cars..... But the question is when is your dad going to get you a new car..... tough one to answer...

It all depends. Can you cap the present car, and still buy new car later?

If so, Keep then buy.

I will be buying my own car. I bought my civic and paid it off in like 2 years. My mom and dad have nothing to do with this purchase except to give me the go ahead and if they don't give me the go ahead, they will not help me make a payment if I cannot make it. He is basically my net incase I am low on funds.

Not a problem for me, I have RSX-S leather seats.

Umm well one thing about that...my parents still pay for my insurance. Therefore I cannot afford to pay insurance on two cars.
