Best car ever for deciding that you'd like to have one, but don't need it NOW.
Sorry if this comes as a downer, but we lurked here and watched for three months before we found a candidate, no joy.
Three more looky/drivy, no joy (one was, but couldn't justify the premium price.. six speed sure was nice tho')
We've thrown the required maint dollars at the one we chose, slightly modded it, and are now as happy as we can be.
DO WAIT, there are owners that take good care of their cars.. I bought mine from the owner and highly recommend the same, good dealers are hard to find and well worthy of their word-of-mouth. bad dealers are a dime-a-dozen.
The trade-in values being offered by dealerships for the car you specifically want is a cryin' shame, so keep that in mind in your decision to buy only from a dealer. NO WAY IN HELL would I settle for what they are offerin' right now, I'd sell it here.
Good Luck!
