Wrong time of the year to sell a car. I guess people don’t do their research. Bring the car back for sale in Spring and things will go differently.

Appreciate the kind words. Think I have 10 maybe more different sites to find cars with multiple searches for different cars on each.

Surprised this car got to so little even considering it’s not the ideal time of year to sell a GT3.

Wrong. Now is a great time to sell. Christmas to NYE is a different story.

Yea, the 2008 with more miles looks to be the cleaner example. Did you check out the vacuum job on the floor mats. Give that man a raise!

It's like the janitors at disneyland that use brooms and water to do cartoon mickeys on the pavement. This guy vacuums the logo of the dealer into the floor mats for the FS posts.

The lines are actually done with a brush. A nice touch for sure.

Ques: Is the leather from the Gen 1's indicative of the creases that develop on driver left bolsters (both the Merit Partners gen1 Pumpkin's seem quite bad for only +/- 6k miles)???

My gen 2 leather (driver left bolster) has twice the miles & still looks pristine compared to those two cars.

I realize that specific bolster receives all the stress of the driver getting in/out,... but still,... at approx 6k miles, I would think they should look a LOT better than that.

I always thought the correlation was more related to how the person gets in the car and that persons overall volume

Low miles and battered bolster equates to a guy sitting in his car with his leg hanging, outside the car, over the bolster. Can't tell you how many times I'm the bad guy for telling service techs to not do that. One more reason I hate leaving my car with shops.
