If you don't like the price......DONT BUY IT! Also, take note of the "obo" This means "or best offer" since you obviously don't know how to read.
I'm not in a rush to sell the car for another week. At that point (Tuesday), it will go on eBay.

This car is a beauty. I just picked it up off SiR-G DC yesterday in tampa. Navi says there's been 10k miles logged in it. Is that when the motor was installed?

Yeah. That was done at pretty much the same time. Could I interest you in everything you need to convert the dash to the 99-00 style?

Planning on leaving the dash as is. Would though like to swap the red recaros for the black U.S. ones you had in it.. So 10k on the navi plus the 20k when you bought it puts the motor & tranny at about 30k?

Man...that doesn't even make sense! LOL To nice of a car to drive everywhere? So would you prefer a car that's not nice? This is why we do this....to have a nice car. That's like NOT ordering a filet mignon at a restaurant, because you don't want to ruin it by eating it. LOL Just my opinion though. You should keep it and enjoy it. I wish I had enjoyed it more when I owned it. I'm trying to do it more with the car I have now.
