Here I am, lost in thought, wondering what a logical man would do. I have a 1997 Chrysler Sebring with 76k miles on it. Sitting in my driveway right now is a Black 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST Spyder convertible w/ a manual trans that I'm test driving. It has 73k on it and is in pretty good condition. The dealership is going to make me a good deal because I work there. They'll give me $5000 for my car and they want around $9000 for this Spyder. The convertible top has a problem with the frame and needs to be repaired in order for the auto drop top to work. Right now I have to manually do it. There is also a small hole in the drivers leather seat, nothing major. What would you do?
A. Trade in the Sebring and finance $4000, make payments. B. Trade in the Sebring and sell my 91 AWD Talon thus making my daily driver and project car one in the same. C. Don't buy it! It's a bad deal. If I do buy this car, it's going to serve as my daily driver, thus the mods will be kept to a minimum. MidwestDSM can attest to it's beauty and driveability. I love driving it but I'm not sure what I should do. I'm afraid of the dreaded crankwalk but the clutch feels firm with no symptoms. What would you do? -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"
