10. Where the **** did this so harshly "isolationist" idea of how the US should be come from. Want to strengthen the US economy? Come up with an idea that increases exports. Exports = Power.

I gotta hand it to ya, cot.... you've come a long way on this forum since your mismatching sized JL subs days.

And to everyone else, yes, FWD is both Fail Wheel Drive and Wrong Wheel Drive... Not all imports are FWD. My 240 wasn't. I traded it for a Honda, and it walks the dog shit out of my 240, seats five, and has four doors... on top of getting nearly 30mpg.

Gotta love the JDM H22A.

Sonatas are poop and everyone knows it.

Also, WTF is a CLS?

FWD = Phail, esp on those eclipses, they ARE better than the previous gen tho

some special Traction control system helps, wanted a rear wheel, but didn't care enough to keep me from the eclipse, it has some balls under the hood.

It's really too bad that it's so hideous.

They do have a good bit of potential under that quasimodo-esque exterior.

I could've bought the base camaro but i really hated it. This car is fully loaded i mean everything, and my decision was that I would rather wait for my credit to improve to get the 370z and buy something ok now. If i'da have got the Camaro the **** thing would depreciate through my ***. I can right now get 14K on a trade in for that eclipse. and its 4 years old.

How are you going to tell him what he can get without knowing shit about the car. It could have 5 miles on it. You dont know shit about what he has so keep your mouth shut.

If he owns the car, it's worth a shitload less... being that it is used.

It's a four year old model, has probably 35-40k miles, and it's not even the top end model. You could MAYBE get 10k trade-in.

Your crazy.

#1 dealers can give you anything you want as long as they show profit.

Incase you haven't noticed the economy is fvcked 3 ways toward the weekend. if a dealer turned down a sale because he refused to give every cent of the trade in value of a car to sell a 35K car he'd probly soon get fired.

#2 bluebook on the car is 18k

#3 car is in PERFECT condition.

#4 my credit is exceptional and if a dealer wants to sell me a 370z he'll give me what he wants for my car
