Yeah it's a shame. The car is pretty sorted aside from the bad engine mounts at 157k. I still like the car. It steers way better than the E55 and generally I prefer the chassis from a ride/handling standpoint. The E55 feels more old school like a B-body which is endearing in its own way and, remember, that was the "Roadmaster/Caprice replacement" after all. Also, the audio system is better.

But yes I feel like I really should consider selling while it still holds some value. I have no clue if the market will cool off by the fall so I scan scoop up something like a G37X without paying thousands more than it is really worth.

Also I do need to take my jumper harness out and probably make it a little more permanent which may mean removing the pot and adding a resistor, shrink tube, electrical tape, better job with the split loom, etc.
