I traded in my 1 year old 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP supercharged with many upgrades. If it was a manual and RWD I would of thought more about keeping it. I kind of miss the big red beast. But the Z makes up for it everytime I turn the key.

Traded in my wife's Mazda MX-3 GS. Had it for 10 years. I guess they sold it right away, probably to some kid who wanted to rice out the little V6.

I'll be giving my '01 CL-S to my Wife, so I get the joys of a new car without the feelings of loss and pain

Has anybody actually traded in a real sports car for their Z?

Not sure everyone would consider it a real sports car, but I traded in my '96 Mustang GT. I've been driving it since it was new, and it's been a great car. Good throaty sound too.

Got a new Silverstone Performance Z.

I traded in my 2001 black CL Type S. It had some *****, but it was still an auto. Before that I had a 1998 prelude with some mods and I still miss that car.

I traded in my 1995 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD. I kinda miss the turbo all wheel drive action. But I don't miss all the hassles and repairs. DSM's are good cars, you just have to love to work on them every spare minute you have. I think I was fixing that car more than I was driving it. Needless to say, I'm extremely happy with the Z.
