Always hate to see someone go, but it does happen. I've added it to the used listings in the registry. Do let me know if the listing amount changes or you take it off the market so I can update. And let the new owner know about the registry and this forum post so they can update their info and introduce themselves.

By any chance, is does yours have competition seats? I know its a stretch, but I would pay cash to swap seats. I have 5k miles on mine, they look brand new. I am located in Charlotte and would pay an upholstery shop to swap the seats plus cash to you.

Just let me know

I put mine through KBB other day for fun, I have 5k miles, kicked back $63k-$64k which ain't bad because I only paid $68k in Nov of 2017 (sticker was $84k).

Wow that's a long drive! There was a nicely priced used one in that same city that I was looking at recently, but I didn't want to drive back to NC lol.

You can look through the used tab on the registry and see some of the ones that I've tracked there to get a rough idea.

If you do put it up for sale or trade it, please let me know by posting and let any new owners know about the registry :-)

Are you the original owner or did you buy from the original? If purchased used, if you care to share the price it will help with the stats. Oh, and let me know what city in Florida so I can update things.

I changed them out at 10700. I did not like the original tires at all.

IMO a realistic value would be $60,000.

Y'all paying any attention to the recent leaks in the C8 forum on the available options? Looks like our reign of Tension Blue exclusivity may be coming to a close. Note interior option HTO "Two-Tone Tension/Twilight Blue".

I'm fully expecting my drool cup to runneth over when pics of that eventually come out.
