depends on how much you owe on your car and how much you cant get for trade in. If you still owe 15k on your car and they are only gonna give you 8 or 9, then I would say by all means, no.

...another 2.2? You can definitely get into a 2.4 or possibly SS/SC for that price, unless you just want a new car.

dumb mistake...even worse resale value, and the fact that you will have a 3 times faster car and a hotter car at that

sweet, a 2.4 then

it all depends on what your owe on your car vs what its worth

you're going to adding about 3-5k on top of 15k for the g5, carry over from the cobalt
