Reason for selling?

I moved to DC, I basically walk everywhere.

I drive the car maybe three times a week maximum, under 20 miles a week. I never get to take it above 35 mph.

I used to live in Virginia where I could enjoy the car and drive it all the time, and it was fantastic, but now all it does is sit in front of my house. It deserves a home with someone who can stretch its legs.

Yikes I am

39,000 miles - still smells new.

I put a lot of highway miles on it when I lived in Virginia but now, like I said, I barely put any on it. Car still has warranty left!

not to be an *** but I have read many posts about how sh!tty your car runs on the r flash. Is this the real reason for selling or does your car run perfect now. How did you fix your problems?

Its ok - you're being an *** anyways, but those are pretty ubiquitous posts and I'm sure prospective buyers have read them.

Replaced the o2 sensor, replaced BOV, retuned on the dyno. Car is running solid and fast. I would expect anyone who bought the car to drive it before they purchased it and see for themselves.

In truth my trials with the ECU were what made me question - is it worth it to keep tuning this car if I never even use its power? Is it worth it for me to get an Interceptor and make well over 300 whp, when I rarely go over 35 mph?
