By just contiueing the payments for the life of the loan (1.2%) I get to use that cash and maintain a top level credit rating. No idea how it all works but my wife is an accountant and whatever she does actually makes us money by carrying the loan to term instead of paying off early. I have no clue how it works.

And my guess is Miata RF will be your next car...though Camaro may make sense too...unless you find another sweet V6 Charger

Scion may be gone, but the 86 is not. No need to stress out yet, Tcoat!

Nope no Mista or other two seater. I may not have passengers often but want the ability when I need it. Will see what the Camaro is all about by then. It could be a contender.

No stress here. Loads of time. At about the 2 or 3 month to trade in I will see what is what and decide. Or it could be like the FRS and I I'll stumble across something I knew little about, make a deal and then run home and frantically research to decide if I am going through with it. I am the odd man out here that barlely knew the car was planned much less actually being made when I went to Scion to look at the tC. The rest of the story is legend.
The BRZ may be in line next if they haven't changed that damned new bumper on the 86 by the. I truely do not like it. I could go a whole different route as well since God only knows what will be around by then.

The whole floppy! That's one of the email attachment classics like Superfreinds or Delta WAV.

Throw away to me is anything between about $25 and $30K. This FRS is a throwaway. All I mean by that is I will clock up my hefty miles, let the mileage cheques cover the loss and get a new one when paid off.
That is a tad too throwaway for me!

UMMMMM no.
I never got an Evo because they were above my cut off price for my throw aways so that is right out of the question.

Miles (I auto convert in my head for here).


I get very little for most trade in's but have come to expect that. It is almost worth it to see the sales guy's face when you say you have a 5 year old car to trade in and when they ask "how many miles?" you tell them "oh almost 300K". There is usually a prolonged silence while they mentally panic and try to figure out how to tell you the car isn't worth shit.
