That's what happens when you have a Vedan. Need Vagon.

Don't be sad. You can sell the Vedan and buy a Vagon. And then buy a Cuckrocket. Then you'll be happy.

If I could go back in time...
would I have "settled" on a sedan with recaro, 6MT and in a nicer color rather than pay wagon premium?
Yes...probably.
BUT, that said...I think resale will be easier even though I have the poor man's seats and auto.

Quick opinions on pricing - 2007 TL-S automatic, gray, 136k miles. Has nav but disc is scratched and won't read. Two TPMS sensors need replacement. AcuraLink module disconnected due to battery drain. Timing belt and water pump (and whatever other pulleys) all done at 110k.

If my friend could do it for like $8500, is that fair?

The only one that's kinda a bitch is the ps pressure hose.. it's otherwise only a few hundred up on parts assuming the ps pressure hose wasn't done on recall.

THR pricing is pretty fair.. here's a UA7 for 13k.. for reference to condition and price. It'll probably go for 11-12k.

Sweet. He's going to check out the one I mentioned this evening, since it's only an hour from him. If not, the search shall continue.

UA7 is a good ride. Other than shit seat quality.. it should be easy to maintain and enjoy.

I wish i were in the market...there's a 3G Carbon Bronze with 6MT for under 10K...higher mileage but that doesn't scare me.
Most of my friends tell me to move on with the 3G already...they said it's just sentimental value.

Or park it on the far side of the lot at work and then use it to commute from the far side of the lot to the office building. Like a golf cart. But better because it runs on dinosaurs and not that pussy electricity garbage.
