Anyways... Anyone here Drive past Macalester in St. paul? I seen a yellow ss s/c about month ago heading down grand toward snelling.
P.s I changed my name, it was "HyperJump".

it'll be 97 or newer, so i'll have a c5 or a c6, not which i'll get yet.
i can get a 97 manual with most options as a coupe with the removeable hard top and ls1 with only 20k miles for 22 grand. with the value of my car still what it's at, what i owe on it and what i could save in the 2 months i wait to pick one up i could pay off almost half the car when i pick it up.
my monthly car payments would be less and bein an older car insuarance would be less. i pay $205 a month for my car now with a clean record and all and they said they'd insure a brand new vette for $190 so i could save money with this deal and finally have a vette i've been dyin for the whole time while i wait to get a 1963 split from my grandpa.

16400 in pretty much excellent shape. i hand wash it weekly even in winter and clean the interior about once a month. oil is changed every 5000 miles. the dealership will give me about $22000 for it though on trade in cuz of the stuff i have in it and still have the paperwork showing bought it from them and they put it in so it's still under warrenty and all.

I'll add you to the list of cars that are going
No way you'll get that much for your car...I paid that much when I picked mine up. I can see you getting 17-18 tops.
If they did say they'd give you that much I hope you have it in writing...they like to tell people they'll give them more for there car just to get them in. Then the test drive it and say well we'll give you 18 since its used and some other BS.
I’d say most people think they have a car Excellent shape but to a dealer your only gonna get good value. Modifications add little to none to the value of the car…in some cases they decrease the value because not everyone is willing/wants to buy a modified car.
