1. get a lawyer. you've committed a heinous enough act to require representation. It will minimize your damages. The judge and the states attorney are both members of the bar. showing up with your own member of the bar goes a long way. this is a huge clique and you're not part of it. protect yourself.

2. if its your first dui, call it a lesson learned, pay your fine, go to traffic school or whatever, and get over it.
2a. if its not your first dui you dont deserve the car anyway.

this is a problem you need to throw money at. good luck.

What shelby guy says-I get a lawyer anytime I get any type of moving violation. He goes w/ or for me and usually gets the fine reduced or eliminated w/ no driving school, only probation. I've even been on probation and received two tickets while I was still in the probation period and my lawyer got my probation doubled instead of convictions.
Judges are more lenient to offenders w/lawyers b/c they used to be laywers and they appreciate seeing there own kind get paid. Get a good lawyer and always keep your mouth shut. You'll be fine, I've had friends who have gotten out of 1 or 2 of them and just had to pay some hefty fines w/ some community service.

For God's Sake don't sell the car-It didn't do anything wrong. Think about it-it'll probably end up in some foster home, start smoking at 13 and be in jail by 15. For God's sake man, let the car be. Practice waxing it while you can't drive.

AAAHHHHHHHH

If you end up losing your license (don't know how strict Florida is with DUI) I can understand why you would want to/need to sell your car. A lot of us forget how much money (loan + insurance) we pay per month to drive a Cobra. For some it's tight to begin with. It doesn't then take much for thoughts of selling it pop into our heads. But selling these can be a financial nightmare because the resale on the '03/'04s are way down. That can be a double whammy for those with a tight budget because what you get on a sale might not cover your loan balance. So my advice to anyone thinking about selling is think it over carefully before you make a rash decision either way. JMO FWIW.
