wow, i really appreciate all of the good info. you guys def. helped me with my decision.

i figured im just gonna keep the car for a few more years. i REALLY love this car no doubt, its just that there are far more important things. but, seeing how selling the car at this moment can make us lose a lot more money, i might as well just keep up with the payments. this is pretty much the only thing im paying for, i really have no other bills since im a full time student.

at first i was just going to sell this car or trade it in and get like a $7k honda/toyota. but, after seeing some insight, its not worth it to be upside down and probably oweing $3k - 5k more, and turning that 7k beater into something almost double of that. i would rather pay a little bit more over time, then paying a big chunk, which may put me, or my parents in debt. cuz i know for a fact, we dont have a few Gs to put up front.

so im guessing, just hanging on to this Si for a year or two, then selling it would be a better option??
