Default Someone explain this one to me:

I'm not really sure what the point of this was? How could you let a car like this sit around for so long, without driving it? Did they really think it was going to be an investment? I'm not sure they'll get $21000 which is their buy it now price. I mean, given the original sticker of $32000, at best, they'll lose 9,000 and have gained less than 65 miles of motoring pleasure.

I mean, what's the point, when you can get super-clean 07 S2000s with <10,000 miles for $20,000...

What do you think this will sell for?
