The '05 is newer and revised. 10 additional horsepower, larger better looking wheels, etc. Nothing wrong with the '04 but for the price he paid, he could spend just a little more and get brand new. 20k was probaly what they were asking but I could definitely talk them down to at least 17,500-18.

3k under blue book from a dealer? I seriously doubt it.

And for $5,000 off I can get more than 10HP difference and 1" bigger wheels.
Although I do agree the 17's are hot.

And how much more would you have spent over a track model? 6piston big brake kit and bigger brakes is not always better for braking and performance.

h:Well..good luck on the negotiations. I can't believe that they were trying to sell that for $22k though.
