BanningZ is up in Salem and plans to buy a Z soon, but not yet as far as I know.

My Sky is in near perfect condition with dealer installed mods with a tune that pulls all the bolt ons into sync, even if I had ultra low miles the price I could get would still be pretty low. The car looks so good though, that the Saturn buyer told me he wanted my car and gave me $500 over the typical high auction price (verified through different dealerships unrelated). I only excepted that offer due to the tax benefit with the trade-in. The margin is fairly thin between what I could sell it for verses what I'm getting including the tax benefit.

I still need to see the paper work to verify that the numbers have stayed the same since Saturday prior to signing for the Z.

If all goes as stated I'll be getting a Black/Black interior Touring, Sport with Nav. It is difficult for me to trust dealerships in general so I'm a little anxious to see if everything ends up as they originally stated...........
