Default Trade my car in......

I was asked to trade my car in for a 2002 VW GTI VR6 with 118,000 miles. The car has a Borla exhaust other than that it is bone stock!


the value of the car alone is over mine and if i traded mine in I could get less vs if I got this car and sold it. The guy wants a straight up trade for titles.

Thoughts?. .. . .. ..

if you're ready then why not go for it.

If I could decide on one vehicle for more then a week, I would sell my Audi and get myself a Truck or SUV, but I can't decide which one I want to get so I'm keeping the Audi for a while.

Then if the guy wants to do a straight trade why not. If you don't like the VW, sell it and make a few grand.

Do it. You can make crazy *** power on a VR6. I'm talking like 2JZ crushing power.
