stay with 4th gen or get a 5th gen...

ok fellow lude lovers, i love my 4th gen, she's been great to me but i've been pondering lately about sellin her and getting me a nice pearl white lude, '00 model, loaded, manual, all that good stuff. i think i would make payments on the new one and use the money i get from my 4th gen. and throw some mad mods on it...what do yall think??

Sounds like a good idea to me, although if I were you I would probably stick half of the money you get to paying off the loan and the other half on tunning the car. I have '00 pearl lude and love it!

I say go with a 5th gen.
I've had both, and I loved my 4th gen to death, but I think I like my 5th gen better. And plus, its a nice change too.

Id say go stick with your 4th gen, there are less of them (at least where i am), plus ive heard that 5th gens dont get good gains from mods without a new ecu...

Damn!! My insurance would be like 125 a month for that lude. With the car payment, that'll be a litlle over 500 m month for the car. I'd rather just pay 3500 for a swap and have the same engine with nice low insurance

sounds like a plan to me. personally i like the way the 4th generation looks better then the 5th anyway so get the swap and have a nice low insurance rate with a smokin fast ride:p

stay with the 4gen...all the way man...i dunno why people like the 5 gen....haha it looks nasty and its heavier...and it even looks heavier...i think 5gens are only for show...no go...4 gen all the way...haha o well...maybe cuz my future car will be a 4gen...--im 16...is it personal? i dont care...friggin a...4 gens are nice...5 gens are nasty....simply put: stay with 4 gen.

o yeah...and also...if you stick with the 4gen, then you can use all that money you were gonna use on the 5th gen to mod up the 4 gen even more...!! haha

the 5th gen aint NASTY, its just not as nice as the 4th. im planning to get a 4th to when i get my car.

I'd keep the 4th gen and mod the fuck out of it!:D :cool:

It depends on your plans for the future. How many miles does your 4th gen have? If you do pay $3500 twds a new engine...what about the future? You could put that $3500 towards a newer Lude with less miles. It's basically what can you afford and what are your plans for the future. They are both GREAT cars...just one is newer..with less miles and less wear and tear. IMO...get the 5th Gen

go drive a 5th gen, beat on it a little and choose which one you like better. each is better and worse than the other in different categories.

Go with the 5th gen. It looks a hell of a lot better than the 4th in my opinion.

5th Gen all the way.....

You kidding me? 4th gen looks betta than a 5th Gen? lmao

You do realize this thread is over 2 years old right?
