I think it's a good idea, but it's your car, you got a license, I think your old enough to make a decision yourself.

What is the condition of your current car like?

I would be hazardous to sell it and move on if there's nothing wrong with it. From the pics I've seen your car looks pretty neat. With another car you might be buying someone else's problems.

I just dont understand why people make threads like these.

You either want to keep your car, or you dont. If you dont want to keep it, return it to stock and sell it! If you're unsure as to what you want to do, then clearly you dont want to sell it so keep it!

Definately sell it and get a VN.

Make AFF a better place. The Street commodore forums thrives on threads like these.

Agreed, and it means theres another member for the Street Commodores forums.

Agreed, but thats using way too much common sense for these forums.
