I don't think it is going to sell. It's been up for a while.
It's paid off, so I'm not fretting. Just gonna drive it for a while and see if I can keep myself happy. If/when I sell, I will pass the spring on to someone else

I traded it in (actually two weeks ago). Dealer gave me exactly what I paid for over a year ago. I can't have piece of mind with this car after everything that I have read here. I did not want to wait to find out if it will happen to mine (oil consumption, oil temperature, steering wheel lock/starter button issue, etc). With my kind of luck, I'll probably be hundreds of miles from home when it happens. Anyway, it was "fun" while it lasted. I will not miss the road/tire noise - can't even have a conversation at highway speeds.

havent had an issue with having a conversation with anybody on the freeway in the car, of course mine is a 2011 so per the rumours i've heard i may have more sound dampening material than yours.

Working it. I've got the wrx, so I'm thinking about getting something practical and adding a bike to the stable. Maybe a fit and a cbr.

Totally off topic here, but a question for Red_Zed -

Is HSV an abbreviation for Huntsville? Do you work at Marshall? Is Reston, VA close to the NASA Langley labs?

Sorry to be nosey, I'm just a big Space buff (grew up about 20 miles south of KSC and am old enough to have witnessed a few Saturn V and earlier program launches) and have been to Marshall a number of times.

Thanks!

Very cool that you have seen Saturn V launches. These were awesome and awe-inspiring. 7,000,000 pounds of thrust or thereabouts.
