300-hp was the original measurement, but the new standards changed it to 288-hp. No changes to the engine were made. The new transmission did not affect power output. Torque also changed a bit from 325 ft-lbs to 317 ft-lbs.

There is better fuel economy rated at 21mpg combined for the 6-speed, whereas the 5-speed provided 20mpg combined.

Nothing spectacular, but it still helps in the long term.

One thing to have her check is number of keys. I would insist on 2 master keys.

2005 with 25k for $29k?

I'll be dropping my next door off tonight to pick it up. After going back and forward they only took $1,500 off so shes paying $27,500.

I'm just wondering if you guys think its a fair price, because she can still cancel the sale. Thanks
