Default Possible buy need opinions

I've been looking for an fbody forever and I'm ready for the search to end.
I found a 2002 a4 black convertible with 71k on it. Here's the link. You may have to copy and paste it. The price is too high but what would everyone offer?

Looks nice. 15k is way to high for me... Its just a convertible ls1 afterall. Not all the eyebrow raising to me. So i would probably offer the same as a t-top car, and most likely get laughed off the lot. I wonder what was done to lower it, and what other mods have been done. When i bought mine, i didn't look for that kind of stuff. And some things on my ride were not a very quality job by my standards.

From a lot, i talked the dealer down to 10k with 85k miles. But I probably could have gotten one for around 8k.

Seriously, 12K MAX. My T/A t-top had 46K when I picked it up two years ago; it was just as clean and I got it for 10K. Also, see if you can get the stock wheels-those aftermarket ones are hideous...

I would go with about 12,500-13000. See if you can find a few things to nitpick at on the car that are blemishes to make you seem not completley interested.

I just got my new one, 99WS6 104k miles for 8200, there's one around here 59k miles guy wants either 17 or 18k. I believe he's bonkers. Always KBB and NADA it. But 12 sounds about a good price, dealerships will always mark it up trying to certify their sales and what not. Wouldn't go with convertible in my opinion for looks and structural integrity.

All else aside good luck finding one your happy with. I know that I'm happy with mine
