Question Big decision to make. comments?

Ok I have a sixxer (2009), and I just realized how much I liked modding and stuff like that. Well I really want a gt, and I want a keeper.

Problems that I have. Owe over 27k on the sixxer. (yea I know, I got killed). Payments are where I want and I've been paying for the car for 6 months now.

I'm going to school and basically this is my run around car but I have a truck I drive that I drive most of the time....

I'm wanting to get the gt and pay it off while I'm at school and then find a house that I want after school is over....

What are ya'lls opinion on this.

Keep the sixxer or get a gt?

Unless you can put down a bunch of $, the deal probably won't work... the car is too upside down. If I were you, I'd supercharge or TT that sixer. That would be pretty cool...

I dont have to get rid of it no. But I'm planning on doing lots to the car....

I just want a v8. I over pay the payments right now.

I walked out the door with that car at 31k... yea I know stupid but I didnt think I just wanted the car...

I just don't know if putting a turbo in and everything like that is worth putting in a v6.

I love the car but now its to the point were its either keep it and put the turbo in it and what not in it, or get the gt and not spend as much...

Jeeeesus, dude. I really think you should just keep the six. The GT has its perks but if its your getaround "beater" car, you might just be better off keeping it. The market is so bad right now that it's unlikely you could offload that and not be way upside down.
