Keep EP3s don't come too often in the market =/ I saw more wrx than EP3s on sale this year when I was looking for a car. It's just sad seeing an EP3 walk away.

good luck with the insurance on the Type S. That'll be a very dumb move if you're tight on cash.

02 EP3 1200
06 WRX 1400

It can really depend on the company since I have 100mph ticket on a 75mph freeway and an accident w/ total loss.

if your broke how would you get another car? It'll be cheaper to maintain the one you have rather than buy another car. if the ep is breaking the bank account, a type s wont help at all.

keep the ep and just save up some money to get it fixed. i'm in the same boat. just got inspected yesterday and the dude said i should look into some new tires and brakes soon.

Do you have any car friends that can do the brakes for you? Brake pads are decently cheap and unless your pads were metal on metal then you don't need rotors. As far as your tires rubbing, that has nothing to do with the state safety inspection. The tires themselves do, but unless VA has something specific then tires rubbing still pass. How bad are the front tires? You can always move them to the back and maybe they won't care as much.

Brakes are easy, tires can be worked around temporarily, and you shouldn't have set it up to rub in the first place. :mbiggrin:

dont make the mistake i made.

i sold my ep a few years back..worst mistake ever. i got lucky and got a new ep....got one that i wanted for a long time..one of a kind. finding an ep not molested is tough.

dont get rid of it.
