No way. There's not a lot of cars I'd trade mine for. Maybe an Elise, they are pretty hot. But yeah, for sub-75,000 cars, what could I get that would be a step up? Maybe my exact same car, with a paint job, and a COP set up.

I'd rather have a miata too. No point in a big, heavy *** car when there is really not any more room in it...

Yeah, you might want to keep the title in your name. I am sure she is completely commited to you but I wouldn't want to see you on people's court. Just a thought, why are you dating someone who can't afford her own car?

well, she went as my co-signer on that z and she also helped me out on down payment big time (she gave me $11k basically which im paying off to her sloooowly)
oh, and she is my fiance... we live together for 4 and a half years now

but im pretty happy to keep my miata. the only reason i wanted to sell it is to give money back to my g/f sooner but now we are going to sell her integra and ill get to drive my little red beast

oh, and we will also save some $$ on gas that way because she goes to college on freeway and i drive to work in stop and go traffic every day.

translation:
I could not afford the 1st payment coming up, so the co-signer repossessed the car.

You are a complete tool for buying a 30k car when you had to take 2 loans on it.

At least it was his dream car, the one he could not live with out. I figure, if you'd kill a man just for looking at it, and you sleep in it every night, then those kinda sacrifices are worth it. :-P

Anyway, it sounds like "give" means "let drive".... :-)

The Z has quite a bit more interior space than the miata.
