Sell The car, sounds like you are getting your values straight if the payment is putting a strain on you sell the car and save the money the way this economy is going you will need it.

Dam i like ur evo post some pics on here of it. I really want a blue IX or VIII. But i feel the same way now. I drive a car that fits my life style and saves me money. But i do plan on geting a nice car for a weekend car sooner or later. But the longer u wait to try and sell it the more money u will loose on it

Hell we got friggin 75K mile VIII's still going for 23-25K. It ridiculous.
To the OP: I'd think you'd regret selling the car down the road, but that's just me. I'm one of the few lucky bastards that got married and still got to keep my toys. I hear constant *****ing about them, but I still got em

If you can afford it, keep it, cut some other things to save up the money. It will be hard to find another evo down the road. I dont think prices will drop. 
Ive been thinking to sell mine too but when i wake up and go to work im like f*** this 2 more years and the car will be mine ! :d

Make sure she's the one for you!
Not worth selling evo if you plan to get divorce in the future
about 75% of people i know are divorced......
Divorce is too common in america.

Man evo are geting cheaper all the time u just have to travel for them. I see IX with less than 30,000 miles for around 24k and under. They will keep droping its a car it looses value each year. I know i will find one in about 2-3 years that will be in great shape for a good price. But right now its not my priority to have that type of car

I think that it's good that you're being responsible and doing the necessary step in order to tie the knot. However, I think pricing the Evo at $27 is pretty aggressive.
But good luck with choices.

I've only had my EVO 9 for about 5-6 months but I've been thinking about selling her recently. I have a huge car payment and gas prices are driving me nuts. I'd like to get out of car payments and move out and start a life. I'm almost 23 and I might be married within the next year so having a car like this just doesn't work into that lol. So kbb says my car is worth about $27k. It's bone stock with no wrecks and it's in excellent condition. I know our country is going through a rough time right now with the economy but would now be a good time to put her up for sale? Or wait till after Christmas or something for everything to settle down a bit. I wanna get top dollar for my car cause I know it's worth every penny of $27k. What do you guys think?
I'm in almost the exact same situation right now. I love the car and can make the payments without issue, but after that and mortgage there's not much left. If I were to sell it and get something where I didn't have payments I could pay back some money owed to the rents, put some money into the project car and put more money to the side for my honeymoon in april. I basically can't decide if I'd be more happy spending the money on the car payments every day and driving a car that makes me smile every time I get in, or having the money to do other things with.
