Yes I was being sarcastic with the title, the car is a blast to drive even though I have to keep in under 5k for now. I'm not looking to race anyone, just want to open it up a little and see what it can do on an open stretch of twisted highway :-)

Arrested Red may still be the fastest, at least when it comes to attracting Johnny Law's attention ;-) But blue is really growing on me the more I look at it, but I don't think anyone here would disagree, the car looks awesome in any shade. I just keep telling myself the cop will look the other way with a blue car, please don't burst my bubble.

And yes, it was a lease. I threw out the lowest number I could think of just to see what they would come back with. I had read on Consumer Reports web site something about 29600 with the hold backs. Was planning on going to another dealership to pit them against each other. But when they said yes, I was floored, and really didn't see the need to waste 100 bucks in gas driving back and forth to save another hundred. I'm very happy with my deal and ecstatic with the car. Just posting the numbers so maybe others will have something to go by (giving back a little for all you guys giving to me).

 

Congrats man! 2 more things you should do before your car's broken-in:

1. Change status to Owner in s2ki.com
2. Purchase s2ki.com membership



Enjoy!!!!!

 

Congrats Those first 600 miles take forever.

 

$30k is a great deal considering invoice is around $31,183 or something like that...

 

Hey IwantanS, That looks like a CAE flight simulator in your avatar. Do you work in the industry? Just wondering if there was actually another simulator technician that happens to own an S. Sorry for thread drift. Oh, the S2k's cost way more than 30K in Canada even when factoring in the exchange rate.

 

congrats pete..i bought used so didn't feel your pain but it's gotta be a good one!

oh...and change to "Owner"

 

best money I've spent in 06.
