You’re looking for basically what I was looking for!! I settled on a SportsShift II V8S in lightening silver with obsidian black interior.

I would have preferred a manual but got used to the SS as long as you drive it as you would a manual. It was weird at first compared to driving it to an automatic.

50 days for sale is nothing... average sale time for a Vantage is 4-6 months.

This 2012 only has two owners and it’s reasonably priced with low miles. Clear title. But I’ve noticed it sitting for a long time also.

That looks like a nice Vantage, with some cool options and cool manual Trans. The only draw back is the base stereo.
good starting point for a price as well.

No memory seats either on that one, thats a super base type model, I would want new brake rotors as well, they shouldn't be rusty like that

Just a heads up to OP- that '09 with 6 previous owners just had a block failure and is getting a brand new block from factory... suddenly, that car is a great deal.


PULL THE TRIGGER!!!!

So apparently there are dealers where you pay them a fee and they find the car you want. I don’t believe in doing that. I reached out to Lance Westerlund who is the AM preowned manager at corporate to let him know about what I’m looking for. He said there are 13 made in the manual coupe in lighting. So odds are tough. Guess I’m going to have to kick back and wait. Or find another color.
