Thanks. The xD is the wifes car. I'm either going to find a cherry Gen1 xB or a new Gen2. I loved my Gen1 but we'll see what happens.

Yes, but the rate of depreciation will slow down each month/year. The first year's depreciation on a new car (not used) is huge. But what the heck, it's only money.

To be honest you will be lucky to sell your car for $28,000 IMO.

I sold my car because the economic plunge. I bought my car for $32k with tax and sold for $28k. I think I did well selling it. It was better then new and only had 8k miles.
