Hey bro... I'm in Calgary if you want someone to come check the car out with you.

The price looks really good though, those usually go for considerably more? Did you run a check on it? Accidents etc??

Always try to bargain!! Even if its a lil on the cheap side, its worth a shot. That car would normally be marked at around 22 or 23 Canadian! So, you're ahead of the game. Gas mileage, yah, in Calgary, not good... since we have such long distances between destinations and what not.
Unfortunetly on Wed's I'm busy until the evening (school and work that day). But I know these cars very well... so let me know when you wanta go.

Well, do not know what they go for north of the boarder but I just got done finding a car.

I was looking for a 01-02 WS6 TA under 50K miles. Most were in the 17-18K price ASKING range. But after about 3 weeks I hit a sweet deal, at least I think.... Found a 02 Collector Edition TA with 46K miles for 15.9K, all stock with new OEM rubber.
