i have 11' G37s cp with only 4500 miles. White ext. reason i am thinking sell it or trade it in for a TSX wagon is that i have two young kids 3 and 5. at begining, i thought, they are perfect for the cp and when they grow bigger in another 5 years, i can get SUV (My wife has Acura RDX). but now i am feeling that i was selfish to have a cp when i have two kids at home. how much you think Dealer can give me if i do trade in. i am thinking to get 2012 TSX loaded. hopefully even trade including tax everything. i don't want to put a dime in. for 2011 tsx with tech package, i think i get around 29k maybe 30k for 2012 model with tax, llc. i am hoping dealer can give me about 33k for my G.

 

Grass is always greener on the other side. Do you even have to carry the kids frequently?

Why have two mommy mobiles? Keep the coupe.

 

You can probably get a great deal on the TSX -- Acura has been having quite a hard time selling their newly designed monstrosities.

 

I don't think you will like the TSX much after driving a G...

 

I understand you need a bigger car for your kids, but you decide on a tsx wagon?

 

Why not just get a 4 door G or a Maxima.

 

i just don't put any more money to the trade in. i do like my G and drove TSX about 3 years ago.

 

I have two kids, 6 and 8. I don't carry them often and not for long distances, so I just put my seat up a little when I do have them. But then again I have a 98 4runner too, which I use. Their mother has a 2010 RAV4. Maybe get a 4 door beater.

 

Ouch. You are going to take a nasty hit for poor planning. I say keep the car until it is 30 months old or so, and put lots of miles on it to keep your effective cost per mile as low as possible.

 

There are other cars than the TSX... you can't go from a RWD to a fwd...

 

I don't think you will like the TSX much after driving a G...

 

You will get financially raped trading in a 2011.
If I had all the money I pi$$ed away trading cars as often as I did when I was younger, I'd be a lot wealthier today.
As mentioned in an earlier reply, you have a good enough balance of vehicles now.
If you've made your mind up to swap out to a roomier car at least try and sell your 2011 yourself and recoup a few thousand more dollars.
