Give up my cam for a civic?

I just recently got a 03 se v6, and since my dads' car is breaking down. My parents want to buy another new car. They were looking at civics, corollas, etc. So I was wondering if i should give up my cam so my dad can have a better ride then me. I think this would be the good son thing to do .

My cam only has like 1800 miles on it, I was thinking that Iam only in college so if I got that I would be able to save money on fuel too.

Opinions?!

i agree with the other two people, see if your dad will get another camry. But if he doesn't want to, and gets a civic or corolla, i would go with the corolla. ANd yeah, you should switch with your dad. You wouldn't be that "good" of a son if you're driving a 03 SE V6 camry, and your dad is driving a civic LX 4cyl. :p Plus you would probably feel weird about it, bec i know i would.

lol keep the camry and run boy...run fast~!!!!

It it's an option let your folks take the new car and why not pick up a used model? Used Camry's are in abundance and very reliable...need I tell you about my 240K miles? Plus you get to go through all the fun we do custom making our own parts~!!

Yes, Honda's are overpriced anyway....so a little more and you have a Camry 2.4 or a Corolla for less!

Good luck!

Giving up a Camry for a Civic? hmm I dunno but I can kinda related to that cuz I drive a Civic SIR hatch and also have a gen 3 camry.

both cars are smooth and very nice driving cars. Where the Camry is comfy and refined and basically your every day sedan... the SIR is my fun car which I love to do drive whenver I get the chacne to let it open! Anyawys thing is I live it the city and driving stick can sometimes be a real chore.
