Well I went and worked a deal on the GS. My car plus 18K out the door. Works out to be $58,432.00 adj. sale price. I was hoping for 16K out the door but I believe I will go for this. I have until tomorrow to decide.

Very nice car. Way more comfortable than my Porsche which is kinda minimalistic.

Welcome my friend, yeah, I also spent time there up at Schofield back in the day. I'd really recommend the 2LT though for all the good stuff.

No 2LT Grand Sport available on island so a 1LT will have to do for now. I will be closing the deal tomorrow. I have a clear title on the trade in and the difference is cash so it should go quickly. I once again want to thank everyone for all of the input. Great group of enthusiasts!

Congratulations, and a good choice was made. Welcome to the forum, and post some pics when you have a chance.

I own a 2015 Arctic White Base (1LT) Stingray with the A8 tranny. I have not had any problems with mine and I have 18,000 miles.

My garage door opener fit perfectly in the little cubby where the heads-up display buttons would be. For that reason I never purchased the the HomeLink sun visor. You can buy one on eBay for anywhere between $175-$225. It take only about 30 minutes to install.

You Porsche is nice but your gonna LOVE the C7. Way more comfortable.

Yep, sounds like a good deal given Hawaii prices and not much competition (Just Cutter and JN). I remember that they used to put some kind of big "market adjustment" (or what ever it was called) they tried to pass on to the buyer. I guess they don't do that anymore, or they use it as a sales-pitch when they drop it during negotiations.

Every time we're back there my wife and I say how much we wish we had ours there to drive around the island, but driving a manual in all that traffic on the H1 and on Ala Moana/Nimitz Hwy would get old after a while.

And yes, this is a GREAT forum, with a lot of GREAT people to help with any questions.

Enjoy the ride!!!
