Guys, you really can't compare insurance premiums without basically posting your entire policy detail. :lol:

I can't find my midpipe. Do you guys think the dealership will have a problem if you turn a car in open DP? I don't see why they would care.

yea im sure they will care

I'm 18 with 2 points on my record. That's actually lower than it used to be.

My insurance for two cars, one that's fast, just went down to $62

^ he has a point. lol

I am pretty sure they will be fine with it.

Did you seriously just say that?:lol: The thought of spending an entire day swapping a set of brakes for a couple hundred bucks excites you and yet you are apprehensive about spending 30min swapping a center console for one that looks less messed with.

:amused:

What do you mean sell it? I would be doing him a favor the way you describe it.:lol:

:lol: I didn't even notice he said that. It's super easy mike.

I guess it's not so bad being 33. I've crashed my car 3 times and received 3 tickets (one for 125mph), but since they're all off my record now...and my car is old, $90/mo for full coverage.

What did the cop say when you got pulled over for $125?

"TAKE THE KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION!"
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?"

"WHERE ARE YOUR PANTS?"

This thread is killing me I have not laughed this hard in a while

Not apprehensive Joel. Like I said before... it's not my car alone so the things i'm selling are ALL added by me besides the brakes or came on the car aftermarket. My ex may have a problem since the car is in her name and i'm just a Co. LOL.

Take that idea about the brakes and forget about it. If the dealer sees that you have messed with the brakes they will either not want the car or give you a lot less for it. That is a safety item. The center console is cosmetic and yours is painted a funky color which will also make them give you less money since they (in most cases) will have to fix that before it can be sold.

The things dealers care about is mileage,make, model and condition of body. They don't know about the car itself. I doubt the Toyota dealership sales guys are going to say hmmm doesn't the 06-07 wrx come with red brakes? They rarely even know about their own cars ; \.

Before it goes on sale though, the service department goes through it. Sometimes those guys aren't stupid. Besides, your car is going to end up in someone's hands, so that's who you're really screwing assuming the dealership doesn't notice or doesn't fix what's wrong with it.

If you're getting a shitty deal, just go to a different dealer.

Just swap VIN numbers with an STi. Then the dealer will give you a lot more money for it.

:lol: ^ This.. /thread

And we have come full circle

:picard:

Damn everyone and their 'it screws the next guy' posts .. I want to swap cd players as mine is having issues ejecting Cds , and sometimes keeps saying ERR instead of playing them. but likely the dealer will miss that item not working and it just screws the next buyer....

Think i'm paying $100 a month for two cars with 300K/100K/50K coverages (no collision or comprehensive) i've been cited 16 points in the last 3 years so it costs too much for full coverage on the STI , and i will hopefully total the rally car in a rally so i wouldn't be filing a claim anyways.

Not so fast. We have your records right here.
