If you're unhappy with your car, I think you should do something about it, even if that means taking a loss. For an auto enthusiast, there's no better feeling than enjoying your car 100% of the time you drive it, with as little compromise (or none) as possible. If you can't do that with your daily driver, then you need to accept it and get a hobby car. Or channel those interests elsewhere.
Great advice. I would love to have a more low end grunt and a louder engine growl with my G but I still love it as my daily driver and know that it's a compromise. To solve my problem I'm going to get a Mustang GT as my hobby car. If you can afford it and have the room, getting that hobby car is the best solution.

Thanks, Dan.

If I had the space for 3 cars, I'd do the same as you.

There are lots of people in poverty all over the world who would love to have that Corolla.

It never ceases to amaze me the preaching that goes on at every opportunity. There was one thread about those crappy cupholders and people were preaching about why do you need to drink anything in the car anyways. Obviously these people must live on a farm in Iowa somewhere because being caught for 2 hours in rush hour traffic in the city makes you yearn for a beverage sometimes.
The CPA is known for doing that. I learned how to ignore.

Good sermon, YDan. But I am afraid you put the congregation to sleep.

Does this mean you're not buying the Corolla?
