That's the sticker price, I doubt anyone paid near that much. Avanti
II's have very poor resale values.

Actually, the retail price dropped from the 2004 to 2005 models. It's
now either 52k or 62k ( can't remember). There will be a 2006. Pictures
should be in the next Avanti Magazine according to Lew ( hopefully with
some more info on the future of Avanti Motors).

I talked with the factory a couple weeks ago and learned the second
buyer didn't pan out. Mike Kelley seemingly has decided to not be a
hands on manager, but hire that talent and see what new blood can do to
increase business. They are in the midst of writing a business plan to
present to MK. Hope it works. I suggested they disseminate good info
to the SDC and AOAI in order for all of us that participate in Car
Shows can, at least, give correct info.
