Feeler:05 Winning Blue Sport/6spd

I'm getting a better paying job in the near future and I think a Lotus Elise or M3 is finally in my financial range so I'm thinking about selling my 8. I just bought it 04/27/06 brand new with 23 miles on it. It has less than 5500 miles on it right now including two 300 mile highway round trips. The car is 100% bone stock and mint, the tires still have probably 90% tread left. I drove it under 4000 rpms for the first 1700 miles, did an oil change then changed the oil again at 4700 miles with conventional 5w20. Hand washed weekly and clay-barred and waxed 3 times with S100.

Winning Blue on black cloth interior
6 speed manual
Sport package (HID, Fogs, Traction/Stability control)
Appearance package (factory lip/body kit)
Rotary Accents front and rear

I don't know what else to say, the car is just like the day I brought it home from the showroom. It has seen rain exactly twice, I average 21 mpg combined highway/city and keep it under 4000 rpms most the time. It has all the TSB's addressed, never had a flooding/starting problem (R flash).

Looking for 21 flat which I think is a good deal compared to the other 04 or 05 cars with much more mileage. PM me with any questions or offers. Car is in Dallas, TX.

You don't even want to know, I'll still have a beater insured as the primary and put it as a weekend/2nd car. But first I have to get rid of this 8!

Bump for a good deal... 20k for a basically brand new 6mt sport? Find that a little hard to beat myself... heck, I might even buy it myself if I didnt already own one!

Yeah, I essentially stole the car from a dealer in SA at the end of April. I think I got the biggest discount out of anyone on the board. MSRP was right at 30 with sport/appearance package/rotary accents and I paid 22 out the door.

I'm actually leaning towards keeping it now since no one seems to be interested and I'm starting to get into the market for a townhouse/house. It's a perfectly good car and just went in today for engine recall check, should get it back tomorrow.
