… Feeling pleased about the price it fetched and the fact that we sold it to friends, but we sure will miss the plush ride of the "land yacht." LOL.

 

what a tease
miles dollars?

 

what did you buy

 

I bought a 2003 Honda s2000 a few weeks back, and we have neither the need nor the room for three vehicles, we decided to sell the oldest/highest mileage one. The TL had 111k and change. There was a moderate blemish on the front bumper and a very minor one on the rear. The brakes and rotors were just replaced two months ago, and the tires were replaced in Feb. with Yokohama AVID ENVigors. I took the mean value of the major three sites: Edmunds, KBB, and NADA (which varied quite a bit), subtracted for the minor body flaws, and added in for recent maintenance items (HID bulbs, EGR port cleaning, water pump/timing belt, spark plugs, plus aforementioned tires and brakes/rotors). We got six grand even.

 

It wasn't even my car, it was my partner's, but I am still kinda sad to see it go. There's just something about having a car for eight years (she was second owner, at 7k miles). Plus, there is a lot of my actual DNA (blood, sweat, and yes, even a few tears) on that car. When you work on your (your spouse's) car, you get attached to it, huh?

 

On the plus side, the roar of the s2000's engine and the wind blowing through my hair sure helps ease the pain. :-)

 

Not bad
