Bought the original urban legend for one crisp dollar at a sheriff auction. Under 8 inches of snow and a tarp. All I knew was it was a 2001 and there were four wheels.

Son of UL was bought on craigslist. Not quite so good a deal - but a familiar story. No need for the car, didn't want to store it, saw the 60K maintenance bills coming, would need new tires in the spring, etc., etc.,

Best deals I have seen are in Oct from personal owners before they put the car in storage.

For reference I looked at a nice 2001S that sold for 13.5K. 40K miles - but like most of this model year add in a new rear window.
