[Shotimes] Sable SHO on Ebay

Yeah, Joe started out at around $11K for it. He did a great job, but it's
still a Sable, with the Sable interior and the Sable suspension.
Realistically, if someone wanted a unique ATX cruising vehicle, I personally
feel it's worth a couple grand over something like a '93 ATX in similar
condition, but for most SHO folks the bench seat and mushy suspension don't
cut it.

The other aspect ids that he may not be that serious about selling it.

Now, if he offered one of his other SHOs for sale, they are also worth a bit
of a premium. Joe takes VERY good care of his cars, and drives them very
cautiously.

He's had it on eBay, off and on, for more than a year, probably closer to 2.
I think his original reserve was $9K; bids never came close to that.  I was
interested and emailed him a couple times; but ultimately the interior and
the fact that the suspension would need to be upgraded immediately turned me
off.  Along with the initial high price of admission.  Mercury used to have
a little better QC on the line; not sure if that is still true.
