Phil,
What a wonderful story. I don't think you can make a wrong decision either way. Do what your heart tells you to do.
Good luck.

Maybe throw in some added value - e.g. a 6-month warranty.

As an aside, if anyone wants to throw $18k at me for mine, I'll bite..

I'm going to undercut you!

I'll sell my 00 XKR for 12k right now (has a few minor cosmetic issues that aren't sorted yet, clearcoat on edge chipping on one panel, and needs another panel painted, wheels need to be redone). Very nice DD but not a show car.
