WTB: Exige

Year doesn't matter, although I would prefer a supercharged one (be it aftermarket or factory). Also, I am only looking at used ones. Prefer low-ish miles. I'm open to most colors. I am in Arkansas and just trying to get a feel for the market and see what is available right now. Thanks!

@ACE51 : Yeah that is kinda how I am. I just got a new job and am new to the market so I'm just being patient until the perfect one comes my way.

thats what I did. I loved my orange elise and I knew that I wouldn't be happy unless I had another orange car.

I considered an 07 exige S leftover but still didnt want to pay 55,900.

What I considered when buying a car:

If it came from the factory supercharged then the insurance company was going to know about it and cost more on my premium, not a big deal breaker but something to think about. A car with a non factory s/c wouldn't be on the premium. The s/c is the same as the factory ones, just no intercooler and the scoop on the roof is non functional.

I jumped for this car because it had everything I would probably buy anyways (belts $800, wheels $3000, s/c already installed w/ gauge $4400 + someone elses time installing and doing a good job (I'm lazy ) and it was already broken in


Just search, you're not going to loose much money if you are forced to sell your car down the road, always keep that in mind!
