"Thanks for checking, but this car sold for $47K in 2005. I know the value of two seat sports cars has dropped, but 14k is absolutely unacceptable. Kelly Blue Book and NADA both average about 18.5 for this car. I'm really curious how you determine "current market value." Most dealers use KBB, NADA, or an average of both. Well, maybe we can still talk. Seeing how you are valuing my extremely nice, German engineered, rare, warranty-equipped, 0-60 in 4.7 second car at the price of a Hyundai Accent, just drop the price of the M3 down to $29,600."
Nothing back yet... LOL
BTW, That CTS V is already on the road and may be the fastest production 4-door sedan ever built by a factory. 0-60 in 3.5! Too much cash for me right now though as is the new M3 :-(
Have you driven an E46 M3 yet? If not you will be VERY disappointed in it's performance compared to the SRT-6. Stock ones out here in vegas struggle for mid 14's at the track when I was running 12.85 with just a damn intake. I do like the new M3s a LOT better though...............but you don't ever want to pull the engine out of one.
I'm working on two of them(E92's) rite now that are the same color and almost exact same hits.
Here are my twins......................
