KOW...my S currently does not eat a drop of oil. Same level at the end of 7500 miles as when I filled it up. This is definitely a F20C issue and not a F22C issue.

It really is embarassing to drive with the damage, so I only drive it when I have to. The plan is to give the car a new face... after 14 years I'm ready to change the look a little bit. Just not sure what to do to it yet. Wife said I have to pay taxes before I can spend any money on the car! Laaaame

Can't say that I have. Doesn't really matter what others think anyway. I didn't buy my S to make others happy. I bought it to make me happy. Doesn't matter what they say as it's not for sale.

Yep, find me an S that doesn't!
Mine doesn't but it's an AP2.

Considering the mileage and damage, $5k isn't too bad. Did you try to counter the offer? I know what you're saying though. I'm sick and tired of the craigslist lowballers. Every single time I've sold a vehicle it's been one after the other thinking it's not rude to offer 50-60% of your asking price. I really think most the time it's kids in high school just messing around with no intent to actually buy anything. Just plain losers with no class IMO.

I used to go meet people first and then barter but now I get it out of the way. I don't like wasting my time.
