Sigh this is gay... I have no idea what I should do...
I owe 6k on my camaro still, it's worth 11k on KBB
the STi is paid off, so it will all be cash in hand plus selling the after market parts
I am 100% for sure selling the STi.
I really really want a manual car, and something fun(i.e. v8/t56).
I will be applying for a career job here in the next month or so
I have no idea what would be the best/smartest thing to do with my money... so far my ideas are as follows
A) Man the **** up, drive the auto for a year or so, spend about 2k in mods to get it to where i'd be semi happy with it, get my real job, throw the sti's money in some form of investment and then see where i'm at in 6months-1year
B) Sell the Camaro/STi then buy a lower mileaged Camaro/TA in manual, then do the above mentioned with the left over money
C) Drop all the money into a car, and have zero car payment with a low mileaged car that should last awhile

Sell both and buy a bucket and drive it till it dies. I understand people like nice cars, but buying a car is the worst thing your money can go to. If you must buy a new car and are planning to finance, remember that you must have some established time at your current work.
I don't really care about having a "nice" car, I want a fun car, something I can unleash some aggression on it's tires(like I do to the camaro
)Yes the STi is returning to 100%(ish) stock
A) I would have the most amount of money left over(by a decent amount)
B) would be more enjoyable and easier to deal
I guess another option would be to just swap in a m6 tranny/ecu to the camaro

BTW - you don't need a big down payment to buy a house, brotato. You might consider trying to buy in the next year or so as they're saying the housing market will be starting to rebound at that point and the costs will be as low as they're gonna get for a few years at a minimum.

I'd go with A then. It's going to involve less effort (selling a car, then finding a suitable one to buy) and leave you with the most money.
