Convert or trade in?

Recently I paid off my Formula. I always have wanted a T56 car. And now that I will have extra money I was thinking about converting my car to a T56 I've seen kits that are right around $2000 when it's all said and done. My question is. Would I be better off saving up money and trading in my car for a T56 car? Or just go ahead and have it swapped in? I'm really not for sure if I'll break even.

Re: Convert or trade in?

it would depnd on the t56s in your area I guess. If you found a car that was exactly what you wanted I'd go for it. I did the swap, and it was a PITA because I had no help and I think I ran into every problem in the book. I would never do it again. But then again, I'm the kind of guy who likes to take stuff apart for the hell of it. Buying another car would be better for resale, and headache, but not as fun as taking a saw to your car
