good god dont trade in your v6 if you owe that much on it!!!!! that would be just retarded!!!!!! pay it off first or keep it and sell it out right or trust me YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR AZZ!!!! i owed 3200.00 on my saturn when i traded it in on my gt. after 2 years of owning my gt i just started paying on the 14,500 i payed for it....and i still have 3 more years of paying 400.00 a month on it. DONT DO IT!!!! BE SMART.

Thats probably the best advice, you could probably get 5k for you car.

selling your car would be the best choice if you wanna upgrade, try and atleast break even. I doubt you will tho so carrying equity over to the new loan is not gonna be fun. Nows a great time to be buying a GT or any v8 but I'd think about it long and hard because having a nearly paid off 6/paid off 6 is 100x better than being the banks bitch.
If you must upgrade, look into a slightly higher mileage 99 cobra vert.

+1 this is a good point. I didnt really think about you not having the car payed off.
