true - but this one charges $800 for this:

I have your color in stock; it has Wheel Locks, Cargo Tray, Door Edge Guards, Fender Wheel Trim, Rear Bumper Protector, Painted Pinstripes, Window Tint.

I am wondering what the fender trim is?!

Unnecessary bling to charge you $800 that only costs them $100 or so...

keep looking.

my first car was a '77 impala, baby blue. I got it in '83.
the paint was dull and not in very good shape. the car looked old!
- in thinking about justifying what i paid for paint protection i came up with:
1) the impala was 6 years old
2) my lease will be up in 4. that's close to 6
3) my extended warranty will be up in 8. that's way past 6, and i will still want a nice looking car with paint that is the first line of protection against rust.
4) if anything, the UV problems of the world are worse now.

the ball's in your court...

addit: I think my eyes actually go red, too.

One thing to think about is the financing. Used cars generally have a higher percentage. I got .9 percent for 60 months. I am paying 304 dollars in total interest. It's hard to get a used car for anything near that.
