so wait, are you paying $240 or $340 monthly? your calculations are right (minus the last little hiccup) but you stated earlier in that post that your payments were $240 monthly. that is qite a bit of difference ($1200 worth). also, you can look up on KBB.com or edmunds.com and find out the value of your vehicle...even trade in values.

if you are making bank like you say you are, thats over $60k anually and that is if those number are before taxes. if that is take home, it is even higer. honestly that is about were I am and I have a car payment, personal loan, ex-wife, and daughter....and I still have about $1,000 extra monthly (usually paying down loans). don't really know your home situation or cost of living but would think that two vehicles would be nothing for someone making that kind of money. I have two vehicles and plan to replace one of them within the next 2 years after I pay down the loans I currently have.

weren't you just talking about putting nitrous on this thing and talking about fixing the front lip? why are you now talking about selling it? also you don't have to put $32k in a vehicle to get a fast one. buddy of mine has $8k in a truck and it is pushing 400rwhp (granted $6k was just in the motor and he has to run 93 octane because of compression ratio) but it will outrun most stuff on the road right now.

I just don't get it.

340$ Monthly. Was a mistake I realized if I was paying 240 it would take 6 years to pay off but I went on 5 so it is 340.

Isn't edmunds and KBB American? I am from Canada.

See, I don't like skiming everything and then ending my day saying I have 1000$ left in my pocket still. I like the simple life like my dad showed me which and hes incredible with money. One car, not two because I can but why two when I don't need it. Like I said the thread wasn't meant for me to convince on keeping the Yaris. It's more of a brainstorming thread.

It's not just speed, I honestly don't like the Yaris much other than its design, and thats the sedan because I got offered an egg and despise them lol.

If it was about speed, I would just buy garms turbo set up, bigger injectors and install it for 3 grand tops prob and be running 180hp I'm guessing atleast.

And going by weight to speed ratio I'm betting a 180hp yaris would beat a 200hp impreza or a 201 hp Si.

So ending my post - like I said it is a brain storm thread if I do skip out on this all then my goals to get a lip even though it seems no where sells them.
