Wandered CarMax lots past week or so. THey are offering me $14,000 for mine. (Limited, Auto, 27000 miles and let me tell you, mine is IMMACULATE, even under the HOOD! Cna't say that for any at CarMax. Some people, after only 38,000 miles, make it clear that they don't deserve one of these cars - and their cars end up at CarMax.)

So, I take it most Roadsters were either:

1) Limited with everything including Automatic
or
2) Base models with stick

Yea, I found ONE Limited Roadster with a stick, 06 with about 16K on it - dealer wants $19.9K.

I guess he'll get it, since there are no other ones out there. But not outta me. Sure makes me feel good when I read CarMax's offer they gave me: "Car is very well maintained, low miles, and in showroom condition."
I would be surprised if that dealer got more than $17K for that car. If that.
I bought my Roadster with a stick, '06 brand new for only a few thousand more.

Just be patient and wait for the right one.

It's not like your driving a Ford Focus right now..

Ask me how that's going.

Go ahead, ask....


roadster without his stick.
