Moving on, perhaps

I don't have anyone else to talk to about cars, so you guys have to listen.

I have my 00ES with 183K miles for sale, and I plan to replace it. I still have two other second gen Intrepids, one of which I drive, so it's not like I'm leaving completely. But, even though there are some excellent deals on second gen ES's in my area, I don't think I'll go that way again.

I'm giving the matter a lot of thought, but right now I'm looking at the following:

300M special

Neon SRT4

and yes, I hate to admit it in this forum, but

Cadillac.

It's a wide variety. I'm looking for the best combination of performance and luxury that I can find, but I want to drive the SRT4 to see what it is like. If it performs well, I can give up the luxury.

I wish there were some Challengers in my price range.

I want to pay cash, which limits my budget to about $15K. I'll need to test drive various versions of these cars to see which I like best. Any suggestions and comments are welcome.

Well, I did it

After some back and forth, I paid $4500 for the LHS with 59K miles. I'm pretty happy with that deal. It's an 01 in excellent shape, low miles, and I got the price down from the advertised $5995. If you count the $1800 I got for my Intrepid, I only paid $2700. I pick it up on Saturday, and I'll post some pictures. Not moving very far on, I guess.

Tb/wp

Yes, I'm already ordering the timing belt, water pump, thermostat and timing belt tensioner pulley to give to my shade tree mechanic. I hope to get that done next weekend. I told my wife that this would be an expense to any LH car that we bought unless the previous owner could prove that it had been done.
