I own a 2004 TSX 6spd with about 55k on it. The car is in great shape, it's pretty fun to drive, gets high 20's mpg, and hasn't had a single problem yet. I bought it outright and I'm sure I could keep it another ten years no problem.
Unfortunately, like many here in the garage, I get the itch every once in a while and I'm looking at swapping it for a MS3. The MS3 I have my eye on is listed on eBay but it's only 40 minutes away. It's an 07 with 21k on the odo. They have it listed at 19.9 for the buy-it-now, don't know what the reserve is. KBB on them is ~18k. KBB on my car is ~15k.
Now, my credit is sort of non-existent. I'm young and have never had a loan. I have a CC but that doesn't mean much right? Anyway, in trying to justify this, I'm thinking a loan for ~4k would help flesh out my credit and having a MS3 would be icing on the cake
.
I live in New England and the car wouldn't be garaged. Are 0 degree nights a problem for turbo's? Anyone driven both cars and have any impressions to share?
I need a reality check.
