^^ Watched the video. That's actually how I get out of my S since my side bolsters are high. It's more entertaining when my fiance gets out of the S while wearing a skirt.

Such a pretty car. I thought about this before buying my S. Maybe one day.

You should see how my wife tries to get out of the Lotus...Pretty entertaining as well. LOL. The car is actually more affordable than most people think. Well a used one. I think people may just have the wrong impression that it is a 6 figure car or close to it. Really far from that if your looking at used ones. Just take a look at some for sale ads and you'll see what I mean. Anyways, thanks for the comments.

I looked not too long ago and I remember there were hardly any for sale and the prices all seemed to be 30k and up. I was suprised because a couple years ago the same cars were in the low 20s. Must be the "not making them anymore" effect.

It's definitely an affordable toy. Unfortunately I'm not in the position to have another toy beside the S. Hopefully, that situation will change in the distant future.

I've noticed that too ever since they stopped production. Although, you can still find some great deals out there. Just being patient is the hardest. I would notice when a great deal would show up, it would pretty much be gone the following day. Took me a year and a half of searching everyday till I found the exact one for the price I wanted. The one I found showed up on Autotrader at 1am(or at least when I checked), no pics and minimal info. Went to the dealer the next morning, saw it, drove it, got it inspected, and brought it home. While I was at the dealer, there was about 3 more people that came to see the car and numerous phone inquiries. I never let the car out of my sight and once I made the decision to buy, the other buyers were very disappointed but congratulated me. After further talking to them, they were ready to buy as well if everything checked out. One guy had cash in hand . I don't think you will see the better deals as much unless your looking everyday as they tend to sell fast though.

OH!!! You plan on keeping the S . That would be pretty awesome. Sounds like an even better plan. Good luck for that positive change.

I think you made the right choice for sure, I've been wanting to go to an exige for a while now, but I'm happy with my S and don't feel like having another car payment yet, but maybe in the next few years. Have fun with it
