FEELER: Trade your Celica for my mr2 Options

[koan]

I have a '91 MR2 NA. It is black with 187,000 miles. It runs great and only has minor problems that would be expected of a car that age and milage. I have babied it, and had the transmission rebuilt about 16,000 miles ago. I have had this car for two years and absolutly love it, however, it has become painfully clear that I need a car with a decent size trunk. The MR2 is just not quite practical enough for me. I am curious if anyone would be interested in trading their celica for my MR2. I am only interested in a manual GT liftback. I have not posted any pics b/c I'm unsure if anyone is actually interested in auch a trade to begin with. Thank you.

Sure, if you want to look at it from a purely monitary point of view blue book will place a celica at about 500-1000 dollars more than my mr2. But I don't place much stock in blue book value anyway. For instance, I used to have a wrangler and blue book placed it at being worth 2-3000 less than you could actually buy it anwhere. What is really important is the enjoyment you get out of a car. Having had both an MR2 and a Celica ( in a manual GT liftback) I can say that I would rather have the MR2, which by blue book is not as good. If I had enough money to buy another, bigger car and insure it I would b/c I don't really want to get rid of my MR2. I don't have enough money for that so I was looking for a solution where I could get a bigger car that I knew that I liked, without spending said money that I don't have.
