I was hoping not to purchase this old of a model, but miles are low and it seems well maintained. I see it has saddlebags, but I've heard people complain that they don't work well. What do y'all think would be a good offer?
14.5k MAX and yes, those bags are known to pop open on the highway.
Supposedly the newer models have resolved this, but I know 2 people with them that hate them.
Keep me posted, happy to look at these for you.
without ever actually seeing a set of them in person....could a strip of Velcro be added to hold them shut?
I'm sure an adjustment to the locking mechanism could be done.
the old model has a real car battery in it instead of a tiny motorcycle battery... +++
Just a quick search in your area not knowing if any are still available but here are a few

The one you posted in Birmingham I had my heart set on and it sold. The one in Evans, GA has crazy rims on it....I asked him if he could send me a full side pic of it not in his garage (since he didn't post any that weren't close up) and his response was "why?" 
A couple of the other ones either don't have a radio or have a broken one. Thank you so much for the ideas though!
I wouldn't let rims decide for you, if they are after market rims and you don't like them I am quite sure you can sell or trade for stock rims to someone
Most of the Value is determined by the mileage. 8000 in 4 years is 2000 a year. That’s really low. Then you take in the rest of the condition and add ons you get the complete value.
It looked like he changed the rims. those aren’t 2015 rims. But it looks like he has them.
Usually people aren’t into negotiating over the phone. You’ll be considered a tire kicker.
Cash in hand in person changes things drastically.
Saw another one that is in Alabama -
Yeah, you have to be ready to jump on it and put some money down to reserve it until you can take a harder look at it in person if possible. I bought mine from a dealership in Indiana.....I live in Ohio and it was a 3 hr drive to check it out. My back-up plan was that they had several other SS in my price range, so I knew I was planning on getting smthg. The one I went to look at had some minor damage that I didn't like, so I switched to plan B and put some money down to hold it. I came back 3 weeks later to pick it up. I was going to use uship, but then decided that it would be more fun to drive it back and get used to it on a 3 hr drive on a nice sunny 70 degree day in April. Hope you find the one you need! Happy hunting!

they are getting snapped up faster and faster....the season is upon us...
Sheree202 Try to Google Imotorsport in Elmhurst IL.They are a dealer just outside Chicago IL. They have new and used Slingshots and free shipping in the lower 48. Check out the site something might catch your eye.
I just checked that site - https://www.imotorsportsinc.com/index.asp. Select Slingshot at the top of the page or you can select New or Used. The prices looked OK, especially if they can handle all of the shipping arrangements. You may find some cheaper Slingshots elsewhere, but they have a nice selection and Free shipping.

Sheree202 this one looks pretty good at 26 miles it is basically new
Actually shows 286 miles, but that's not a bad price since it includes shipping.
What part of @Sheree202's price point do you not understand.
hm... guys that website won't work for her since to get shipping you have to go in person to make the purchase(not worth it)
We should have read the fine print.
Y'all are the best! So I took the plunge and bought the matte black. Honestly, I was just running out of time and he called me yesterday. Said he'd drive it 1.5 hrs in the cold to bring it to me and uber home. So I went for it. I know we'll eventually have to remove the wrap, but it looks good for now. 12k miles. Pretty sure I overpaid ($14500) it's a 2016 SL. But, I pulled it off in time for hubby's birthday. Ordered a big red bow. Hoping the weather holds out Friday to surprise him properly.
Pretty eventful ride to my friend's shed (20 min drive).....got pulled over by an hilarious officer. Warned us that technically we need helmets in GA. But, didn't want to even see my license. Very cool guy. Then stopped to get gas and had a dad taking his kids picture with it. 😂
I did it! Thank you all for your advice and offering to help a stranger! This forum is so helpful and I'm definitely going to stick around.
