Ok, as you all know Im getting a bit tired of used cars and was looking to sell my Corrado.
Well... I just deposited a $3k check in the bank today and am debating what I want to do with it
I know that I have about 1k in credit card debt so that will be first to be payed off. That leaves $2k to either put on a down payment along with what Ill get from my corrado.... or $2k to start a project, not get into debt... and either sell my corrado to put some into the project and some into savings or use parts from the corrado (drivetrain since its new) in this new and upcomming project.
Pros of getting a sub 30k mile car
WARRANTY
Ease of mind about not having problems
Less things to fix initially
Cons
More expensive to fix
Ill be going right back into debt
insurance (Ill need comprehensive, not just liability)
Pros of a Rabbit with 27k on it owned by an 80 year old
Only liability for insurance
Im an MK1 god
CHEAP for everything
A certain G60 Turbo motor drops right in
good mpg
perfect condition
im not going into debt
I will have about 4k leftover after paying off credit and buying the car
its light and sexy
Cons
its not a new car
So thats where Im at right now... here are some pics of the car
