maybe if the dealer stops smoking crack and lower the sales price to something real..they might sell it...just think about how much money they wasted by having the P sitting there for a year!

More than our speculation about the price, the fact that the car has sat on the lot for a year says it all. Some Dealers are good business men and will adjust their prices to reflect market conditions. Others will hold on to their cars waiting for the sucker who is willing to overpay.

And he'll probably get it if he waits long enough. The saying "there is an *** for every seat" Only hope is that the dealer financed it and is paying interest!

Not to highlight this dealers stupidity even further, but the thing is a tiptronit to boot. If you are in sales and hold on to a depreciating asset for a year, the word "idiot" should have your picture next to it in the dictionary.

That is about what I paid for a brand new 2004 this past Decemer. Granted mine isn't a cab, but it only had 24 miles on the clock when I got it rather than 28,000.

Carrera Cab with tip was the best-selling 911 model last year.
