Default hard decision of two cars.

So ive had my s2000 for about 4 months now,and its salavge title with 83,000 miles. Im worried about the mileage going up,and the price going down in the near future. My brother has a wrx 2002 wagon with volk te-37s and 1000$ euro headlights. Someone has offered me 8200 for my car, and I was wondering if anyone could point me to the right decision thanks. this is the car

yes, let the internet make your decisions....be a grown up and figure it out yourself dude, noones going to hold you hand...but 8200 for a car with a salvage title is pretty good...and guess what? the mileage is going to go up and the value is going to go down, you cant really stop those things, so either emrace it and enjoy the car or get rid of it...but no matter what car you have, the mileage is going to go up and the value is going to drop

Sell the S, buy another one with a clean title and less miles.

Never liked the bugeye wrxs, so its a pretty clear choice for me.

The roo value will drop quicker than the S. When have you heard of someone getting an S2k for less than, say 6K? I sure have not.

Also, add a grand or two (or 5 since in Cali) for tax, title, etc. changes.

You're a grown boy, you can figure out for yourself eventually what you would like to do.

well IMO those subies cant take much of a beatin on the trannys. also i hear a lot about spun rod bearings. dont get me wrong ive always wanted a subie but a newer one. s2k is a good car& panty dropper. id stick with a s2k or get a newer sti.

one's a shed with a fast motor, one's a sports car. I don't think you should be comparing - just whatever makes the most sense to you dude.

Ive had three subies... 06' STi, 05' WRX and a 02' WRX and now I'm on a 00' S2000... To tell the truth... I miss my STi but I wasn't happy with my wrx's... They're just too much work to make fast.. and monies.. The only way I'd get rid of my S would be for another STi...
