02 Z06, hardly ever drove it, just way too much power for the street, and nothing worth racing.

Loved the tundra though... In terms of what you were getting (381hp, 400tq) the fuel use was actually quite good (but that's relative). if one day I decide to get a truck again, I wouldn't consider anything else. Just an amazing vehicle (and I've owned Ford, Dodge, Chev trucks in the past - never again).

The tundra remains the fastest vehicle in the current Toyota line up.. (and will be until the new supra comes out). Loved it when any ford/chev/dodge would show up at a stop light and I'd show them tailgate until the next light... always surprised them!
yeah they really are great trucks i love test driving them at work but they can be scary when its wet out.

I traded my 2006 dodge durango.
I owed 18k on it, the deale took it off my hands. So it didn't affect my payment.
I actually had to pay $150 for them to take it off my hands. but it was totally worth it!!!
My insurance stayed the same witch was cool. Im a 17 year old boy with a 2013 sports car and my insurance stayed as if i was driving my durango. Awesome!

Traded a 2012 Genesis Coupe 2.0T, with 6000kms on the odo.
Never looked back!

Took me 6 months to put that mileage on the Genny. Now I already have 4700 kms, 2 track days and 2 camping trips after just one month with the FR-S, loving it and always looking for excuses to drive it.

DO NOT OUTRIGHT SELL A CAR TO A DEALER EVER.

You will get more in a private sale every time. Walk away from anybody lowballing you.

Every car comes to an end of its useful life.. I so wish they still made that car.

I've traded my 350z in for the GT-86. Bought it new in 07, loved it and was very happy with it, however it was getting unconfortable as I'm quiet tall and the headroom in the car is not really good.

Miss it a bit, since I'll get the GT not before September, but at least I've still got my Supra MKII :-)

2002 S2000. Had it for five years, put about 60k miles on it and enjoyed it very much. The FR-S was not planned in anyway, but you know how those test drives go...

Sold my 2001 Audi s4. Was fun to drive and much faster, but it was such a pita to work on and expensive to maintain. So having a car payment sucks, but hey got that warranty again and this car is a suitable replacement. My buddies are all jealous.

Girlfriend traded in her 09 tC for the FRS. I did a ton of mods to it - but still looked clean!
