Where is this located ??
Sweet deal !! Original owner too !!
Only 7000 miles and some great looking seats.

It looks like a stick too !!
If BoilerUpXfire was still looking for a car and wanted another black one I think this would have been the one.

Good luck with the sale

Thanks for the comments.
I'm in Stamford, CT--about 35 miles from New York.

Hey folks. Not too much interest in the car at this price on the forum. I'm considering taking it over to a dealer this weekend and parting ways. Any comments about price expectations or other strategies much appreciated. I'd love to see it in good hands--given the mileage, this one deserves a good home until it is a classic.

Before you give it away to a dealer. You should post the dealers quote and give the forum members a chance to do $500 better. My guess is their going to offer you $8,500 for your trade.

When I took mine to Carmax last month, they offered me $7,000. They said there is no market for sports cars in the Chicago area! HA wtf?!? Yet they had two on the showroom floor....

I bought my 2005 one-owner base coupe with 10,000 miles on it last month. I paid $10,100. It was "clean". Needed the headlights polished, the headliner replaced, and the cigarette lighter fixed. It had had Mercedes leather seats installed.

I also should have told you I bought it from an individual who was advertising it on Ebay.

I love the way they look. They are manual, not powered.

I have been struggling with fit. I had an upholsterer add lumbar padding and it helped some but I need some more. I have never ridden in a base with the original cloth seats.

Would like it if they were lower in the back part of the seat and higher in front.

I drove my friend's Limited several months ago and needed more lumbar in it too.

You'd think this would have sold in a week or two. $11,500 for a car with 7,000 miles on it?

It's the economy!!

I've been trying to get a hold of you. Did you change your mind after your drive? Would like to talk to you.
