Hmmm. i dunna know (WTF kinda "stewpud" question is that?)

if it runs good and has reasonable compression, YES by all means and a Bridge can be driven on the streets, you just have to change your spark plugs a little more often

I'd personally keep your car unless the other one is in much better condition overall than yours is. This is coming from a GSL-SE owner btw. Your car is stock and hasn't been messed up yet. Not too easy to find those. You never know what kind of work others do to their cars. I've seen some very bad work on other people's cars. Don't base your decisions soley on the engine. That's easy to change and motors are far more common and easier to come by than nice GSL-SE's are.

it all depends on what you want! if you were thinking of porting your current -se, then yeah of course you should jump on the deal, that is of course if the car is similar condition to yours. screw getting another car...its only a bridge....not like its a p port :O :o :O

this is also coming from an SE owner. and a stock SE owner at that.....not that thats at all a bad thing, but...i wouldnt trade my SE for a modded one..i like my car and am happy with it as a daily driver. i've come to trust it and know its quirks. so, with that said, you'd have to learn the quirks and develop trust for it and with it being your only car, i wouldnt do it. MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE if you had a second car. i wouldnt do it and i have a lot of cars just my input. i love my SE

Twice the fun, twice the headaches. That is why you keep a piston car as a backup just in case, LOL!!!!
