Just to let you guys (and gals) know the collection in miami has a used car available at their preowned dealership. It's just sitting on the lot. It's silver on black, hardtop, no LSS.

To save everyone the trouble, here is the info:

2005 Elise (Used): $48,950, 107miles

Wow is that some resale value or what?!?!

alan from roadfly is selling his

GG/Red, 1100 miles, $46,000 or so

 

[008]

why is Alan selling?

 

[atyclb]

he says:

just don't need 2 sports cars and don't need to have the money tied up in a depreciating car right now.

Reading some of Alan's posts, I think he was disappointed in the car in comparison to his Esprit.

It's not like Alan really announced it Brian!

Turns out that my fellow Longhorn Crackerbarrel picked up a comment from Alan in the M3 Lounge and posted it over on The Fly's Elise board.

After being directly questioned, he just came to Jesus and admitted it was going up for sale. CB covered the reasons completely.

What I'd like to know from Chris Zvezdah is how after all THIS, can you sell your Dream Car after only ONE year?

dup,
Because historically I've never kept most cars for more than a year or so. but more specifically, since I started riding motorcycles in the mid 90s, I had absolutely ZERO interest in owning any car EXCEPT an elise. But I'm pretty thoroughly a rider now.

But the elise has more than met my expectations all the way round!!

Understand....but boy, that's an expensive habit!

Love the sport bikes myself. Unfortuantely I've had to lay two down, completely totalling both. Oh....and was run off into a barditch in north Austin, which I survived with a few scrapes.

That Texas will sure kick your ass!

Good luck off-loading the Buzzbomb. Will be interesting to see how that all goes.

Was referring to the Elyse Forum on Roadfly Mr. Crackerbarrel. We all don't have the time to monitor 57 automobile forums!!!

Homeland Security......I'm telling you. Bono would be proud.
