I could have gotten the full $11,900 I wanted for it, I liked the guy so I came down a little and I had a wire transfer later that day. Worked out pretty well. To be honest I came across a good opportunity and invested in this car and made a few bucks on it after spending a few hours cleaning it up. I also dropped it off at the dealership and had the ecu replaced and had the dc/dc replaced on the recalls. Since I've gotten 7 phone calls, one of which came from LA, a guy looking for a siver 5 speed (I'm in Arizona). I ended up talking to 6 of those 7 for a little while and if I had a lot of the things I could have sold them all I think. When you know as much about this car as most of us do you tend to really sell it pretty easily. That and the fact that my daily driver Insight was sitting in the drive way right next to the one I was selling.
Haha, I have way too much fun with these things. I've been trying to find another one, but like I said they got popular in the last month here umong people like the guy I sold the one to. He was driving his F-150 400 miles a week and plugged the numbers in to the equation and figured the car would pretty much pay for itself at current fuel prices. And not to mention the fact that their supply is dwindling at dealerships (yeah they've quit making the Insight I believe). Supply has decreased, demand has increased to the economics. You may have to be willing to pay a bit more.
