What will you trade-in / sale your fit for?

I was just checking out Nissan dealership today and did an appraisal for my Fit (for the fun of it) and I manage to get around CAD$18500...

Of course I aint gonna trade-in mine but... as I walked out the door.. I see a GTR... ummm...

Trade-in the Fit for a GTR? :p

If I could pay off the loan I would :) Cause I found a local car for sale that I love :P
For a trade...somewhat realistic...straight up. evo 8-10, mini cooper, ummmmm, a smexy ae86...well, that's not a straight trade. Or an ae86 and the extra money I'd save compared to the fit to get stuff for the 86, yum.

i wouldnt trade in my fit. i got the fit because that is exactly the car i wanted. if i wanted a mustang, i would have gotten one. if i wanted a civic SI sedan, i would have gotten one. i didnt get a fit because it was the only car i could afford lol.

I Have Owned A 911, Boxster S, S2000, S4 Audi And

Several other high end cars like a BMW M3. I finally "grew up" and stopped pissing away my money on items that greatly depreciate.
I was fortunate to get a 2008 Base Fit for $889.00 under dealer invoice. I will be selling or trading to a 2009 Fit shortly. IMO: Better car, better retantion of value, overall superior design.
Once the 2009 rolls out a year later trying to sel a 2008 will be much more difficult. Bottom line is that even though I can get a more expensive car, I will be buying the 2009 Fit.
It truly has everything a person needs who understands that gasoline will continue to skyrocket because of China and India. A "sports car" that gets great mileage yet is a practicle daily driver.

If my Fit was paid off and I really could trade straight up, the only thing I would want is a Panda 91' Civic Wagon with a K20A and complete race ready suspension. ;)

... you just shattered my dream of owning a super-car. Obviously we all got the Fit to begin with for a reason... but no one gets hurt to dream about what car they can get right?

You've been there and prolly own all these nice cars before, and a lot of people on this forum prolly have too...

Anyway, back to topic and dream on LOL:D
