Sounds good. Don't understand why such a finely tuned machine needs aftermarket rear trailing arms. Unless he was trying to deal with a wheel hop issue (fun fact: suspensions set up to handle with a compliant ride almost always have some amount of wheel hop). Which makes me wonder about his usage of the car. But that's the only conspiracy theory I have at this time. Other than the kind of crappy ad (but above average description).

Not a 2SS. That is ok. No sunroof either. Also ok.

Of note:
Each of these are 5K apart.
SS - 2SS, sunroof, RS package. Basically fully loaded, 21K
1LE - 1SS, basically base with 1LE package, 26 K
ZL1 - Awesome comes standard, 31K

That is a good price but he is looking for a 2013 due to standard FE4 and updated dash. Plus 1LE availability.

So 1LE, at a dealer... 2SS with sunroof. It is a little high price wise, but maybe I should go look at this.

Price is not high at all for mileage. That is very low. You may not care about mileage but you need to be aware of market pricing vs mileage.

I meant high for what I wanted to pay, not the value. Still within the ballpark of possible.

I looked at the pics. Not a fan of the K&N (I have a full K&N intake for my CTS-V sitting in a box that was on the car when I bought it - fortunately the previous owner left the stock stuff in the trunk). I wouldn't pass up the car over it or anything crazy like that, but it makes me want to look closer for other "improvements." It's not detailed on the interior, which is fine though when I see that at low price independent dealers I tend to stereotype them into that NJ category (also Better Way Auto is a famous one in CT for bottom barrel pricing and non-detailed cars straight from auction, with sometimes other issues).

Otherwise the price, options and mileage all seem pretty good to me.
