[QUOTE="brian84corvette, post: 6643585, member: 586635"] I picked up my re sx 18 d2 from a local shop for $230 out the door but they only had one and it was out on display - no box for it either but it was brand new tho - im shure of that cause the rubber roll surround had no holes poked thru for mounting screws. I had to do that myself when I got er in the vette.
