1) you get to keep your already near perfect car
2) no telling what issues your "new" S would have

I would have to agree. I would rather go with a known than an unknown. The Raby engine is going to be good and you already know your car. There are other ways to finance such as a personal loan from your local credit union. Yes the rate is higher than an auto loan but less than a CC. Plus, it sounds like you would pay it off fairly quickly, thus not too much in interest expense. Tough choices though.
