Question To wait or not to wait, that is the question

Do i wait for the 03 to come out and ****** one of them up or do i ****** one of the left over 02's up?????? Now that is the question on my mind. I figure its around winter anyways so i prolly should wait to get one but then i think i can get one cheaper now. And the question of how well the sonic blue looks in person or how the billet accents looks. All of these plus many more factors have me pulling out my hair.

I would grab an 02' while you can. NOTHING looks better than a bright red Lightning with those euros. Plus you can use the extra money you saved for some aftermarket performance parts.

methinks rtkilla likes sonic blue?

i'd only wait for the 03s if they threw some manley rods in there

otherwise, save a coupla bucks for the mods by snatching an 02...true blue of course...

Go for the '02 - No Question!!
The first mod on a '03 would be the rims, so with the '02 you'll be already on step ahead (Plus you'll have $ left over, damn, give Santa your mod list NOW!)

Xplan access?

If you have Xplan pin number, wouldn't be that much price differential in 02-03. Wouldn't take year's depreciation hit--even if you could get it for $800 less than Xplan? What dealers are moving 02's for less than xplan? Ofcourse if you want silver, has to be 02 or sonic blue 03. IMHO if you want an 03 and dealer doesn't want to sell on xplan wait until Dec. 30-31st then dealers want to max out year end sales will deal. Or Jan. when they aren't selling anything! Just my .02 Good luck! I have my pin and probably will be my plan.

Coming from a dealer...let me offer this. If you are on X-Plan...go for an '03...at any rate...the best time to buy is in the first 7 days of the month...here is why---> IT IS SLOW AS HECK! I sell 75% of my cars from the 15th through the last day of the month. Hardly ANY cars I sell are in the first 10 days of the month...see the relation...slow week, they WILL make a deal. If not, get up and walk away...trust me, if the remotely think you are a buyer, you WILL get what you want!

9 out of 10 cops agree -- red is best!

Around here the cops think Silver is the best, I know from first hand experiance.

The question on 02 vs 03 is a tough one, it all depends if you like the new wheels or the 02 wheels, or if you are Like Joe and want the Sonic Blue.
