Sold a 2000 Prelude on kijiji, loved that car. Silver, no spoiler. Great shape, handled awesome, good on gas.. But I've been waiting patiently for a small, lightweight hardtop with the handling of a miata.

Not to bash the GC are really nice for sure, but to me felt a bit bulky or vague? Any particular reason you're trading so quick?

More than likely not going to trade anything. If i want to truly have fun with the car by modding it and tracking it, i cant really see it being sensible to have it as a DD. Therefore i will probably by it out of cash and keep my precious le 09 corolla which has been good to me thus far and keep the FRS to show off on the side.

I might be trading in the mustang I bought last month for an FR-S, but only if I can get more on the trade in than I spent for it (a real possibility as I got an amazing deal).

It would be interesting to make money on owning a car for two months.

I'll be trading in/selling privately my 2008 Civic SI. Fun car, and it's the first car I've owned manual, but I'm ready to move over and try out a RWD car. I don't think I'll be disappointed.

Trading my 2011 STi sedan for (hopefully) a Firestorm FR-S. The STi is fun but I feel like the car is doing all of the work.

The dealer says the FR-S I've put a deposit on is being shipped to them with the premium audio unit installed (which I don't want). Can ask them to remove the stereo I wonder?
