Gonna trade in my....
Hey all, I've been tossing the idea of trading in my VW Golf for an S2000. I can get almost 10grand for the stereo that's in it and prolly another 15-18 grand as a trade in on the vw, making the S2000 affordable. I think it would be sweet to have a car that is great for autocrossing like the S2000 and I can cruise with my head under the starts...what do you guys think?

Wait until they come out with the hardtop option. That way some jerkoff with a knife can't cut up your rroof. Thats one thing I hate about convertibles.

I think a guy with a $10,000 stereo in his VW, a 911 twin-turbo, a CL-S with $19,000 in mods, and a 4x4 to tow the boat and jet skis, can afford a Honda with ease. No need to trade in the VW.

Astroboy calls me an "elitist prick", yet I don't have to explain that I have a 4x4 to "tow the boat and jet skis". Go figure.
Jump on down off your high horse, Astroboy.

HELL, you seem to have the money.
Why buy 4-Cylinders when you can have TEN.
You want a convertible, BUY A VIPER !!!!!!!

Hey Astro! Whats going on man?
I think it would be an excellent idea. Get a white one, with the Mugen Carbon Fiber hood, or get a spa yellow one.
That car looks soooooo tight with springs, then add the comptech supercharger and you're set.
I say DO IT!!!

Yea, do it.
Get either Spa Yellow or Blue.
You canadians have the blue right?
Either way... g'head and trade that shitty lil v-dub.
I would kill for a Spa Yellow S2000 to go along with my CL-S... but it just aint happenin.

pretty nice to add to your fleet. i'd personally sell the vw and save the cash to either get a REALLY FAST convertible or just do crazy mods to one of your cars.
