Title: Do I sell my PS2??
Post by: MrWhiteUK on August 29, 2001, 04:43:06 AM: I am trying to get every penny together for a new motor (Lotus Elise) and my ps2 looks like a whole bag o cash sitting there.

I bought it about 7 months ago but had brand new one sent to me 2 weeks ago as the old one was playing up.

I was intending to sell it when the x-box comes out, but there isn\'t much, game-wise that intrests me so the earlier i sell it the more i get.

The only problem is I really love gt3, but it can\'t compare to a real stripped out 0-60 in 5.9secs sports car.

hmmm, what does everyone else think?

I have:

PS2 (2 weeks old)
Sony Memory Card
Digital optical cable
S-Video

GT3
Crazy Taxi
Dead or Alive 2

(I have ALL the packaging and reciepts, gt3,ct even still have their plastic wrapping)

What sorta money am I looking at for a 2 week old ps2, I\'m thinking £230/240 for the machine.

What would everone else do?

GT3 or this...

A little out of my price range of about £11k

Shortlist is:

Elise (if I can afford it)
Audi A3 1.8 Turbo Sport
Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo

Post by: ooseven on August 29, 2001, 09:18:53 AM: why not see if you ccan get someone with a Lotus and trade it for your PS2.......

and then wait till the EX Box is released in the UK and then Buy a Nice New PS2 Plus a Whole heep of AAA Games with the rest of the money you saved for the car.

*note*
From Now on ill Call The X Box the Ex Box because its poor English to pronounce it X Box !

Remeber You Say Ex but its Writen X an\'t it.......

Post by: Falcon4 on August 29, 2001, 01:31:48 PM: i wouldnt sell it. if you strip yourself of all cash just to buy a car, how are you going to be able to pay for gas, and insurance? it wont make a big difference in your saving at all. get a good job, and just start saving. its stupid to sell somthing you like (gt3)

im saving 10k us for my first car right now, i probably wont get it till college.
