trade opinion

hi everyone..
heres the scoop-- i own an 04 sedan 5MT equipped with nismo front end and aero kit, sport suspension, premium bose stereo system w/sub.. the works..
also 20" chrome rims (which im tryna sell for something OEM )

well anyhow, im already around 57k miles, factory warranty ends in january, with an extended warranty from a third party which will cover me until 90k. im really considering trading it in for a newer year G, around 05-06, hopefully DG, (getting tired of the black--EASILY getting dusty/dirty) and lower mileage so i can utilize the factory warranty longer-- sure beats third party warranties!

just got the G in august.. what should i do?

JON

heres my G with ms GENNA

that's a waste of money. ditching an 04 for an 05 or 06 is dumb. They are pretty much the same car. If u trade it in get an 07+ that would be a better move

you've only had the car 2 months and already you're looking to get rid of it???

remember, the powertrain warranty is 6 years/70000 miles.

i agree with Jack (^). either keep your G or go with an '07.

Take it from someone who's owned 5 brand new vehicles from Feb 00 to present. It is the biggest waste of money in your life, of course I know like me you will always try to rationalize why it's a good move. In the end you'll do and then realize how stupid it was. One year later you're at it again. Some folks just won't learn. Learn from me,,,, keep it. You haven't even put a dent in the principal for the salesman to even consider trading it for another vehicle.

Ridiculous, if you hate the black so much, save yourself thousands of dollars and just get it painted. You should lease your next car.

Man that sucks, and I bet it ain't going to be cheap either. These are the times, only times, that dodge looks really good with it's 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. No I'm not suggesting you trade for a dodge, just a comparison

i agree man keep the G or upgrade to 07+ cuz 05 and 06 not much difference just tail lights front bumper and rims and pretty much it and like 30+ more Hp go for a 07+ ( I PREFER 08 when they come out cuz not as much problem as 07 since the 07 is the new model of gen2 )
