I don't know exactly why they were not popular and did not sell. I purchased my 2006 in 2008, brand new and never titled for almost 1/2 price - the dealer flew me to them and I drove it home - bought it off EBay - best purchase I made for a vehicle and it's just a toy for me which is exactly what I wanted. I love it. I will be glad when the payments end and I get to enjoy it for the many years to come but I don't mind paying for it at all!
