I know waiting sucks, but if it's any consolation, I can't (won't) drive mine either until March because of the temperature and the insane local salting regimen. At least you have some time to zero in on the best of the best

Great advice. Thanks, I'll be doing this. Thanks

Not sure if he actually put it up on eBay or was just bluffing me. Don't even care to look.

Good call on passing and waiting, you will find a better one.

You could've bought it, gotten a new set of wheels and tires for a few grand, fixed the issues, but by then you're getting close to 30 grand and at that price point you could find a 17 or 18 1SS with no issues for the same money. Consider lowering your standards a bit. Be realistic--you can't really afford a 2SS. Would you be open to getting a 1SS? That would significantly widen your options for finding an awesome car

SS wheels are staggered. It's likely the tail end of the second set. I got some 17,000 out of the factory tires before replacing them.

I think I would sacrifice year and lower mileage for the luxuries of the 2SS. I really like the HUD, heated/cooled leather seats, BOSE and heated steering wheel. I think I would regret not getting those options if I got the 1SS.

Yep, you get used to those features right away. There ain't no going back for me.
