Does it look like it would be a good choice?

Its an SSL car NOT an MR... I bought mine back in march of 06 with 9,000 miles on it for $30,000 out the door, so I paid $27,500 before tax and tags concidering its a $35,500 brand new I did not do bad.

If they are telling you its an MR they are lying to you!

Trust me its not a MR, MR's don't have sunroofs, subwoofer, leather and enkei wheels. you said you drove it, do you go through 6 gears? Just because it has a vortex generator doesn't mean its a MR. I love these dealerships!

It's gots some miles on it. Over 29k miles on an 05. Maybe it's just me, but I think that is high for being less than 2 years old.

the U.S. average it between 15-20 thousand miles a year so 29,000 on an 05 is about right. Plus we are now in the 07 model year

It is not an MR because evo8 MR's only came in graphite grey color & it is not 6spd as you can see from the shifter that it does not have the spring lever for the reverse.
