I have tried and tried, Ebay, nothing, local paper, nada, calling all dealers within 200 miles, they just wanted to steal it (everywhere for 24,000!? to 28,000).
I even posted it here at 28,000 thinking for sure it would move. All the while the local dealer whom i purchased the car from sells 3 at 2500 over. Ugh. Im just going to keep it, heck with my back hurting, I will try to figure a way around the problem.

GRRRRRR..

my bet is that it has to do with the time of year.. try selling during the spring.. btw, what color do you have? if you want to give it away i'll take it off your hands

and your reason for getting rid of it? back problems?.. understandable.. i've heard it can be a pretty rough ride.

You can't give it away!!!!! Sure you can. . .if you're giving, I will definitely take. Just to show you how nice of a guy I am, I will even pay for the shipping or I will buy a one way plane ticket to where ever you are and drive the car all the way back.

So if you're giving it away, just drop me a pm or an email.

Seriously, if you are trying to sell your car due to back problems, see if Rick Hesel can get some leather back supports made to hang or tie down to the seat.

Rosso S2K...Red S2K...
yea its not the roughness of the ride its the fact that I played football for 12 years and Im built fairly large up top and I have to lean towards the center to be comfortable.
It was fine in the show room, but to drive you had to buy....

RossoS2K,
I agree that it probably has a lot to do with season. I would try again in April-May and bump the price up another $2K again.

Hey Rosso, get one of those massage chairs that hook up to the AC adaptor in the car. It really helps lower back pain, and is a little bit softer on the but. Its not as cool as just the leather chair, but the benefits are great man. If you want to know where to get one, let me know.

Couldn't you just find a nice bucket seat that's comfortable at an aftermarket shop and have it installed? It might cost less than what you'd lose selling your car in winter.
