Question What do you think?

I am still searching for that elusive SOM. I have been trying to talk a guy out of his 7,500 mile SS (not easy), but in the mean time I found somebody selling theirs. This one has much higher miles and the other problem is I wanted ebony interior, and this one is beige. Just wanted to know what you guys thought of the color combo vs. ebony?

Sorry I couldn't figure out how to post thumbnails, but here are the links.

Dude that is super sharp. I LOVE the tan interior, although I am biased I liked it with the red even before I bought mine and wanted that combo. Reminds me of the ferrarri on Magnum P.I. red/tan leather and I think the orange looks even better with it.

Buy that car, it looks great. I also prefer the ebony interior, but the beige looks good to.

Ok, I have decided I do like the ebony better but can settle for the tan. The concern now is the miles, 40,000 isn't bad for an '01 but 7,500 is a hell of a lot less. I am leaning towards spending more to get the lower miles.

I think the tan looks good with the orange...that being said, I'd probably lean towards the one with less mileage...

I like the taupe interior too. It goes well with the SOM.

I have the taupe interior in my 'bird.

the lower mileage one would be nice, but... do you think your gonna talk him in to selling it to you?

if the 40k mile one is in good condition i'd take that one now cause some one else might beat you to it and the other one might not even be up for sale.

P.S. I'm liking the SOM/Taupe color combo better than ebony

TTT for the late night crew...

MyKeE - If I bring the guy just over 20K, I don't think he would turn me away. I just have to fly up there and drive 1200 miles back home...Damn I want his SS!
