I just picked up a 1997 Talon TSI for a smoking deal but, now I have 5 cars.

I was going to sell the Lexus and pretty much replace it with the Talon. But now with the help of Steven. My white Mirage is ready for action. So what I'm stuck to decide is..

Sell the Lexus or sell the Mirage.

How I'm looking at it at this moment. I don't really have intentions on modding the car yet and having two is plum selfish. At the same the time the Lexus hasn't treated me very well and the Mirage has run like a champ netting me amazing gas mileage.

What to do?

Sell them both! Why in the world would you want 4 dsm's, you'll have enough of a headache with 3 of them. And since I know how you fix things, 3 is probably 1 too many still.

What kind of Lexus? if it's an ES, ditch it. But if it's an LS or GS, I would keep it.

Sell that Lexus, they hold their resale like a sunuvabitch, even broken! Just gloss over the rough parts when you're talking to the prospective buyer, haha.

Then drive the TSi every day, and keep working on the Mirage until you're extremely broke, then sell the OTHER two cars. THEN, dump MORE money into the Mirage until it's perfect, get the tune 100% on, then drive it every day and work on the TSi all the time! MY LOGIC IS FLAWLESS. Hah.

Forgot about the SC. Keep it and drop in a GTE and a getrag.

Sell the mirage to Davis for a fair price. Sell the lexus and just come out from under it. Money earned is better than no money at all. You guys will still have four cars if you keep the 2G.
