I’m just gonna stay on top of that better this time.

When I sold my truck, there was over a year left on the 2 year registration.
I went through the CT Motor Vehicle website and got a check for the unused 2nd year($88).

As for the JCW, it strikes me as a mild performance upgrade over the S, which we appreciate. She wasn’t looking for more performance, so there was a little concern that the JCW would be too firm. With the dynamic damper control, it seems the JCW is no harsher than the S (the S is already on the firm sporty side).
The exhaust has a nice note to it, and I always appreciate larger brakes. It’s definitely quicker, just not night and day (at least in our one day of ownership).

Guy with the 2013 in NJ has been writing back now. He supposedly had someone coming at 11am today. I told him if that buyer is not interested to get back to me with his address and I'll see if I can make it up there today. It is a little over an hr away.
Ha ha, the “other interested buyer” ploy.

Seems dealers are all playing hard ball these days. I mean, fooling around with selling a Prius or other hybrid when gas is $2.00/gal.? That’s just stupid.

I told him to offer 6K. I don't think he'll do it though.
Won’t be making any moves because, if any of you follow Cars and Conversations, I’m locked in on a home refi that won’t close until around 12/23.

I suspect buying would be just as efficient.

Meanwhile, NJ seller didn’t make a sale, I suppose, so he reached out and asked when I could get there. We have a tentative appt for 4:30 tomorrow. He promises to let me know if it sells before then.
Funny convo with the wife a few mins ago. I was relaying my back and forth with MN, and at some point she says “$11k?! That’s too much!” I confusedly reminded her that I sent her the ad with the $9999 price. “Well, you sent me one that was 9-something, yeah.” Yes, dear, 9999. You gotta pay tax and tags on that. “Oh....right.”

Consider sheet vinyl. We put it on our unheated cottages (not glued). Cut it 1/4” short and put some 1/4 round molding around the perimeter.

In contrast, a couple of the Kia dealers I've emailed have been reasonable- one to the point that if I do go with a Stinger I'm getting it from him. He even quoted me an OTD price without any games. The BMW dealers I contacted haven't been bad either- but I usually contact a salesperson directly.
I did contact a friend who used to work at BMW-he now works at the Alfa/Audi/Jaguar/LR/Maserati/Porsche dealer- and found out he can sell from any store.
That may not end well for me...

MSRP on the 92 LX (midrange model in US, where in Canada IIRC the hierarchy was LX-EX-EXR, in the US it was DX-LX-EX) was something like 15K and change, I think.
