Default might trade s2k

Well I've had my S2000 for sale for awhile now but no real takers. Thinking about trading it in for another car. Just got done paying it all off but I sold my beater car too so Ive been daily driving my S2000. Wife wants me to get rid of it so I can get a car I can drive all year round and something better to travel in with the kids because her suv eats a lot of gas. Would probably like next car to be either a newer TL or Lexus IS 250. Any of you ever trade your s2k for a daily driver and what was the car? Were you happy with the decision. I know I won't get the price I want for trade in value at a dealer because they don't factor in the aftermarket parts.

Doesn't the IS have a very small back seat?

IS350 also gets my vote, previously owned one myself. Backseat has plenty of room for kids


as for parts put it back to OEM as much as possible and sell your parts off. Dealers will give you more for your car in OEM status then with aftermarket parts. They may even give you an offer so that you won't trade it in.

Leg room is not the greatest, but comfortable enough.

Well I was leaning more towards the 250 for the awd because the 350 is rwd. As for EVO and STI wife doesn't want me to get one. Or I would have leaned towards and EVO. Most likely will have to take off all parts if I do trade.
