That's Earnhardt's for ya. I've seen 99's for sale at some smaller dealerships for about the same price with 20k-30k miles on them. What was that post about people that should be slapped?

Thats no deal for a L. That is highway robbery for a 2000 L. The Spec's seem like for a 01 L.

Thost might be the wrong specs for an 00 L, but if you think about it, lots of L's from 00 probably have an 01 motor after replacing a few parts,, i beleive talimecca's dad/mom just got an 00L with an 01 motor.

Best thing is, the next person that buys that L will probably never know it was smashed. (sense the sarcasm) Robbery at its finest.

Got my 2001 brand new for over $2000 less than that. The only person that will get a good deal is the seller when he finds a dumbass to pay that price.
