Celica Forums General Discussion General might trade my car in...

my mom is kept bugging me to get a truck since the insurrance is cheapbut the truck i want is over 30,000$.
but if its the insurrance, i want to get some sedan, a nice one, like tsx, is300(something under 30,000$).
so here are the choices what you think???
-tsx
-tacoma
-wrx
-is300
-anyother that you guys recommand??

i like the celica more than any of those

The Acura TL is awesome

insurance on those cars is not going be dramatically less than a Celica

out of all of those choices i'd go with the is300

wrx or tsx defiently, have you ever driven in the subura? they are bad ass. id give up my celi for one

ya get the subaru. they are nice cars and plus it is Turbocharged.

WRX or if you want to keep it in the family the IS300, both imo are awesome cars.

Jae- how old are you? I am assuming you are a guy. I think no matter what car you get, your insurance is going to be high until you are 25 when you get a break.

THe Insurance on the WRX would be too high..but like Celica Cutie said anything you drive unless its a family vehical would be high...

If you're under 25 and a single male, you're pretty screwed as far as insurance goes.

theres no escape jae

I would just keep the Celica and wait til you turn 25. Your insurance might drop a few dollars if you got a cavalier or something, but its not going to be significant...significant enough to trade the celi in.

wrx would be my favorite one

You guys aren't very good with finances, if you think getting any of those will "save" you money...

TSX

the insurance on my celica gts is $17 a month more than the insurance would be on a 1997 Hyundai Elantra.

if it has 2 or more wheels and is gas powered, it's $200 a month to insure

Yeah, people fail to realize the way that insurance is quoted. The comp and collision rates are unaffected by who you are... they are only rated based on the car. Your liability rates aren't impacted by the car, only by your age and driving record. If you're 16-20, about 75% of your insurance cost is your liability. So really, the type of car you drive isn't going to matter that much.

wrx, but your goal is to lower you insuance right...so that wont help

If you really wanna save money, buy a Scion xB. *ACK* no offense to you xB fans out there.

A4

but a truck be useful for hauling stuff.. then again so is the celica sorta.
