In case anyone was wondering if any were around for sale and/or what the asking price might be these days I thought I'd pass this on.

O'Brien in Bloomington has a very clean '03 on their lot that looks stock with a "red tag" price of $23,500. A year's warranty, roadside assistance, money back guarantee, etc.

That year listed at $29,900 to my recollection. About a 16% drop from retail in 3 years?

Just posted for your consideration ... I ain't no salesman nor do I get compensated for any sales...

Wish I could afford it. Maybe if they drop another $16k off the price tag.

so is that 16% good or bad? as far as holding value

I'd say 10-15% is about normal... we all know a new car depreciates the second you drive it off the lot. Thats sounds about right to me.

On a side note, I just stopped by the new O'Brien in Champaign. They have a brand new white EVO MR in their showroom with a way out of my league sticker price of $35,000.
