A lot of reasons really I guess:
1. Living in an apartment, can't have too many cars right now and it's a shame to let the car sit any longer (I hadn't driven that car since April of last year). The only reason that car was worth anything is because of it being stock paint, clean exterior, etc. and I didn't want to ruin that parking it at my current place.
2. The money I got from the CRX amounted to about 40% of the purchase price of the s2000.
Got deals on both ends and had a little money in the bank, ended up financing $5750 when it was all over. I wanted to keep my payments low so I can still save and be at least somewhat close to being able to putting a down payment on a house (or move east depending on how my job is treating me) next summer.
3. The CRX was kind of.. done actually. I loved where it was and how well it balanced everything, I had a few things I would of liked to of done but I couldn't justify the cost. With the s2000 I could easily sell it in the spring and recoup every penny I have in it. Plus, if I really want the CRX back I have first dibs on it if/when my brother sells it.
I dunno, it was just one of those change for the sake of change type of things I guess.
