What car will you buy next?

[Sabretooth]

Took the concept from the "what car you would have gotten besides the Yaris" thread, and opened it to:

A) what kind of car are you planning to buy AFTER you have either paid off your Yaris, or your lease is up?
B) do you still plan to keep your Yaris after you pay it off completely?


For me, I plan to purchase either a Scion tC...Toyota MR2 (1996 turbo)...or a WRX, Im still in the air

[rningonfumes]

Find myself a vintage Datsun or Toyota Pickup and doing a project I've been thinking about. Or... Get a Bike. Yes, keep the Yaris.

[KCALB SIRAY]

Probably look for my old '82 Cressida and or BMW 1 series
Yep, keeping the Yaris. It will have a blown 350 in it when I'm done with it.

[DFA]

Probably a Scion, dunno which one yet tho. Me and my Yaris still have a looooong way to go, and I will keep it around as long as I can after paying for it.

[hatchbackkid82]

i would probably hold on to the yaris, but i would want an S2000 or something turbo (WRX)

[kou]

get a catheram super 7 and keep the yaris.

[darthbauer]

I wanna get another Wrangler and yes I would keep my yaris.

[KCALB SIRAY]

I wanna get another Wrangler and yes I would keep my yaris.

I went a whole day without thinking of her and you brought it up :cry::cry:

[nemelek]

IQ maybe

[jinxor]

Alfa romeo 157 or a BMW 135i

[darthbauer]

I went a whole day without thinking of her and you brought it up :cry::cry:

I sorry man. I miss mine all the time too. Epically the other day in the snow.

[Kal-El]

Hard to say.

I'm on a 6 year finance plan (I know, too long) and I'll be keeping mine even beyond that. Who knows what will be on the market by then.

It will meet these criteria though:

- most likely compact class (up from the sub-compact Yaris)
- It will be from Toyota, (maybe Scion), or Honda
- 4 doors
- among the MPG leaders

Possible options would be next generation versions (2015?) of:

- Civic
- Yaris
- Fit
- xD
- Corolla

We'll see what these cars will become.

[Crandall]

A3 or a Supra

If Chevrolet brings the Tornado up from Mexico (Montana in South America) I'll be trading. :thumbsup:

Sorry dude, but that thing is hideous. Asstec ugly. GM would never sell that in America.

:eek:

[thebarber]

going to keep the yaris, but might get a new honda fit to replace the aveo. hard to swallow trading in the aveo though....its paid off AND still under warranty (and we've had NO problems with it - - its just a boring automatic - - but maybe w/ a kid on the way, thats not such a bad thing...?)

Aztek Ugly? Thats harsh. :biggrin:

It looks better from the front, the picture on wiki isn't too flattering. The rumor I've read somewhere said maybe 2010.

I'm still cranky about GM killing the S series truck. I hate that the Colorado is darn near a full size.

[YAR1S]

I'd keep the yaris and run it to the ground.. most definately.

If say... I have a big mistake and crash it :[
I'd buy either :

xd
new 07/08' yaris
the new chevy malibu (its classy....)

[bdc87]

Mini (hopefully Hybrid)
Mustang
or Atom.
Depends on situation of which car I'll choose. Will keep the Yaris for atleast a decade.

[tuckevalastin]

I have a 69 Camaro SS given to me when I turned 16. When I'm out of school and have a solid job the Yaris will be gone and I'll be getting a new Camaro to match. Also I'd liked to pick up a used SS Trailblazer for the winter season and for utility.

[jvgillow]

Miata

[TheRealEnth]

i will go back to the z line and pick up a 240z... and yes i will keep my yaris for life. as long as i can atleast ><

A) what kind of car are you planning to buy AFTER you have either paid off your Yaris, or your lease is up?


I do not plan on letting go of my Yaris. I bought it "for the duration". Now if my life circumstances should change, like I acquire a partner who has children of her own, or I start a business and it takes off and I need a car to impress customers, I might acquire something else in addition to my Yaris.

If my Yaris should be destroyed somehow, and I survive, I will definitely purchase another Toyota. Probably another Yaris or something along those lines.


B) do you still plan to keep your Yaris after you pay it off completely?

Absolutely. A Yaris is simply too useful of a car not to keep.

If I wanted to buy Excitement I'd get a used 1970s era car, probably a GM, modify the drive train, enhance it with 21st century control systems, and create a suicide machine. I would love to do so but I have other plans, Grad School and work. Making Suicide Machines is not a high priority for me.

Still, it would be fun to do it....

[coheed]

Kind of a different thing. I'm gonna keep the yaris till its just quits and then drop a 426 HEMI in my old Jeep Comanche. If you dont know what a Comanche is...

http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll186/bigborebates/IMG_1701.jpg

But mine is black and doesnt say sport truck. Not sure if I'm gonna go with a blower :evil: yet or not, but it will be street legal.

And yes I'm serious. edit: BTW I am going to college to certified to build any and every kind of car ever. I'm going to the only certified NASCAR school in the world. :thumbup:

[jambo101]

Keep the Yaris for 5-6yrs but my 01 Echo needs to be traded and top of the shortlist is
a MINI Cooper S,
also on that list is a C6 Corvette,
a big Chevy pickup for camping purposes,
a Subaru Impreza WRX,
or maybe a HB Yaris.
The list changes frequently but will be finalized by spring.

[staypuft]

tacoma for me or some sort of wagon. looking at a 91 civic wagon right now lol

[lita_g]

If audi brings the A1 to the US then I'll definitely keep it as a possible replacement for the yaris, besides that, we'll see what cars are in the market in about 5-6 years.

[Thirty-Nine]

I don't plan on getting rid of the Yaris for a long time.

However, when our 1998 Civic dies or we get rid of it, I'll be looking at:

Suzuki SX4
Ford Fiesta
Another Yaris
Possibly a Corolla

The SX4 is at the top of the list because I'd love to get an AWD vehicle for when we go skiing in the mountains. However, a stellar deal on other vehicles might prevent that. :grin:

[PetersRedYaris]

I just drove a 2009 WRX wagon. God I want it, but $28K prevents me...

[darthbauer]

If I have the money then I might get an old used military humvee. It would be a good SHTF truck cause of the bulletproof doors and windows. Either that or another Wrangler as stated previously.

Damn it ya did it again, lol. I've got some good contacts on the Military HUMVEE's when you're looking. Plus the Urban Gorilla tops and panels fit perfect on them so you can save some money.

On topic -- I'd even try to grab an old 280Z

That's cool on the military hook up. All the ones I was looking at were like 50K for one that was beat to hell and as old as I am. Do you know about how much you could get one for?

[eTiMaGo]

I'm keeping the Yaris until it either rusts to pieces or I wrap it around a tree :biggrin:

As for a next car, well... probably a Yaris sedan :laugh: Wanna do it up mini-VIP style...

But I gotta say I find the new 370Z to be a very very attractive car, great bang for the buck, but with our import taxes here, I'd never afford one unless I moved somewhere else...

[johnnypaseo]

370z, or maybe wait for the new supra, hmmm choices

[Sabretooth]

Sadly this is already being put into production sometime by Pontiac, as the "ST" (Sport Truck), boasting about 340-ish HP...capable of towing 3,500 lbs.

On topic:
Also considering a Sting-ray Vette...

[invol]

I'd probably get a fun little car like a 3rd gen MR2, and/or a moped. And I'll definitely be keeping the Yaris. :smile:

The Pontiac ST is a Holden Ute sold in Australia, accordind to the latest rumor is, bringing it to the US is dead.

[hatchbackkid82]

one of these haha... i would do it all over again

[TinyGiant]

if they come out with a corolla hatchy i might do that :)

[Kal-El]

It's been out for years. The Corolla Matrix. :smile:

[Cutie Pie #2]

I would love to get the 2010 Ford Mustang or a classic Mustang, my Yaris will be paid off this spring and plan on keeping it for a while. I will start saving some money for a Mustang either new or Classic, I'm a Mustang Lover, but keeping the Yaris no matter what, unless it gets totalled, then I will get another YAris.

[jinxor]

Also I am thinking I'd rather get a Royal Enfield Bullet.... Great Cruiser bike

[RHDVIPbB]

Since I hardly ever drive the xB anymore, I might be selling it and my wifes car and buying a Nissan Cube for her when they come out. I will be keeping the Yaris for a while. Depends on what the new tC looks like though...

[yarswiss]

VW 1L, if and when they ever decide to make it.

2011 Yaris, if they ever give us the 1.0 engine with Start/Stop.

Lotus Elise when I can afford it.

[thebarber]

if i want something bigger than a fit, ill try for an 03/04 vibe GT

[msfire671]

i'd still keep my yaris...since its my first car i actually had to work for....

but im looking foward to getting the Subaru Impreza WRX STi...hot damn!!

[marcus]

i may check out 2010 mazda3
