need help from someone that knows car values.

First of all sorry if this is in the wrong board.

So i got a 99 impreza and will soon swap the engine.

And my dad really likes the car and wants a newer iimpreza aswell now.

He has a 2004 Impala LS. You think he can trade the car and have enough for a 02- 04 impreza 2.5 rs.

The car is really clean with about 20k.

fmv of an impala is far less than dealer price for an rs, so youll probablly end up paying.

If I were you... I'll just do the swap if I really have to (WRX or STi if you can afford)... but since your dad wants an RS might as well keep your current RS... Its a lot cooler than newest models and lighter body (correct me if I'm wrong)...

BTW do you have 99 RS right? if you had an impreza L, swap is the way, otherwise, just get the new WRXs.
