DO NOT SELL YOUR ROADSTER!!!
Explain to your wife that a man of you stature( business owner, job creator, CP icon)
needs either a roadster or a mistress (probably both)
But the car is already paid for and still runs well

while a mistress not only will cost more, but the time of maintenance will be astronomical...

Most of the time. Usually a guy good with a buffer can fix it if its just scratched

You put it on when you want to drive it, especially on long trips, then you take it off at night, make sure it's clean, then put it back on in the morning. If you use it right, it works fantastic. If you are lazy and just leave it on, it does more harm than good IMHO because it traps dirt and moisture and ultimately screws up the paint because the paint that is not covered by the bra fades while the paint under the bra stays the same color, thus creating a very bad overall look.
Those things are usually a real bitch to remove and install. I've never heard of anyone removing and reinstalling them every time it's driven

No use paying new price, have that wholesale friend take your list of requirements along to auctions and eventually you'll get a call with what you want, at a superior price....the ones the lots pay plus commission.

Also, if you really love your current car and are only selling it due to yearly expenses......put it in storage state.
I had my buddy pick up my last ride. Saved 7-10 grand.

I actually have that car, non 442 though, sitting in a building at the shop. Has been there for over two years. Pretty cool car.

****ing dealer key (minor) scratched my door around the handle. As if they were careless with the keys.

Anyhow meguiars makes that minor scratch remover. Wonder if that'd work..?
The car is black so.... meh, IDK.

New Cars are expensive. We just picked up a new GMC Yukon. Easy to get to 60 grand and above.

Thats just insane. I have a 5 bedroom house with a value of 170k. No way can a car be worth 42% of that.

for sure, i passed because i didn't really like the new body style AND i have little ones who are rough on shit.

hell i looked at some that had almost 100K on them that were priced around 30, passed on them too. ended up going the rainman route and bought one a couple years old with 43K that looks brand new inside and out for 7-10 under book (depending on where you are looking)
