Selling your current car & spending more money on a new car just to save a few bucks at the pump. Does that make much sense to you? I know a lot of people who are doing that or have talked about doing that. Sure it would be nice to save $5-$10 a week on gas but do they really think those savings justify selling their current vehicles in good condition and buying something new that gets 5-10mpg more? :dunno:

Discuss.

 

people are idiots

its all mental

 

I sold my economical car and bought a faster one h:

 

It's nice to see good MPG when you fill up at the pump. I was pondering selling my accord and getting a Civic HX a few months ago but I couldn't trade down just for MPG.

The way I see it is that it's just an added bonus on top of everything else that comes with having a new and better car.

 

sold my 99 gsr, bought my 95 m3, monthly went down $50 a month, insurance dropped $150 a year.

Then again, I almost bought myself a 2001 bmw 328ci h:

 

this is about gas savings, not buying a faster car that's older

 

just saying, I almost went the route of selling my current car for a newer one

but decided to go older and faster :rick:

 

i think that its pointless because you lose money on the transaction of buying a new car and you cant really sell your car that you have for what you bought it for. whatever you will save in gas you will lose in taxes, license & registration, and depreciation.

however im looking into new car thats cheap that i can lease new. i have no idea what to look at, i was thinking scion tc or maybe a golf 1.8t ( :drool: ). something with good milage consumption and preferably real cheap would be awesome. do you guys have any ideas?

 

i want to sell my car and get a civic hatch because i like hatches h:
