The price is a bit absurd...but so is the fact that someone sat on this car for 12 years and didn't drive it. For a car with that many miles to a high-end collector the price might be worth it.
It's not a car for a guy that is going to want to drive it everyday or on the weekends.
1999 was a low production year for the WS6 T/A, being that it almost tripled for 2000, so that fact adds to it a bit.

If this price is the absurd price,what would be the real world price? Maybe 20000 or just what someone will pay.

Price is too high. I could see maybe going ~$7500 high than sticker value. Not exactly sure what sticker was in '99, but ~$32K seemed to be the price for a WS6. I could see *maybe* $40K, but in this day and age I don't see this person selling it for that much, unless a die-hard collector with money to burn buys it. Not enough time has elapsed as these are cars are still everywhere. Put that car back in it's bubble and pull in out in the year 2031 and you'll pull that amount no problem.

Sticker price is a fair deal for those that want a 'time capsule' car. Getting more than sticker might be a push for a 12 year old car. As it gets older, perhaps the price will go up, but not yet.
