Hmm well i ran some fuel economy experiements on my car, but mine is a 5-speed...

I noticed shifting at 2100 rpm actually bogged the car down & decreased fuel economy, i started shifting around 2500-2700 and fuel economy went up. I put some seafoam in the tank and it raised my MPG about 1-2...

Anyways price seems about right...Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for the suggestion listing it on Ebay. I have 4 people "watching" the car right now and one contacted me to check out the car on Sunday. If all goes well I will probably end up selling it tomorrow for about $6,500 after negotiating the price.

This went so much faster then I thought it would.

Ended up selling it today for $6,300. He looked up the KBB value which was at $6k so the price dropped. I still only paid $5,800 when I bought the car after taxes/registration etc., so $6,300 is definitely fine with me.

How the heck are people getting this kind of money for stock auto V6 cars, and yet mine sits - a far better car for far less money? Crazy.
