I'd not be asking more than $12k for the car if you want to sell it. For $16k I'd expect an 03-04S.

I thought Mike may be way off too and since we live very close to each other I checked around...obviously not as nice a quattrogeek car, but it is an 'S' and is a 2003. I know when I got my car last Nov I didn't see anything this cheap! Dang. Huge range of prices in the 2003 and 2004s around here.
