More details please. The mileage is right but has the car been kept in a garage it's entire life or outside in the elements? Clean title? How many owners? Mods? Stock? Need tires, fluid changes, etc....??
It's all in the details. I would pay top $$ for a wonderfully maintained, 1 or two owner garage kept example with new quality rubber. Anything shy of that starts the value spiral downward. That 'needs' list you have is not a deal breaker but I have a feeling there is more.

I see a guy listing a quality T/A, Automatic, needs nothing and was a garage kept 2 owner texas car. he's asking 7500 130k on the clock. Sitting outside is probably why window motor is toast at 51k miles

Just an FYI...that "small bubble" near the rear window, I'm guessing that's on the roof? This little bubble is actually a BIG problem. All the T-top/hardtop '99+ cars eventually get this issue, there is no permanent fix other than roof panel replacement (the bubbling eventually gets much worse if sun/heat exposure continues, leading to oozing). The issue is pretty well known, but not everyone will catch it. A knowledgeable shopper will be concerned with this if they see it though, since it's a big job to properly repair (and very costly if having a shop do the work).

Thanks! I think you would be fine at around $6,000, especially with those relatively low miles. Of course offer a little less, like $5,500 to cover the 'needs'. Lots of life left in that car unless driven too hard. If the Formula needs a few grand over the next year or two you would still be fine unless the paint is bad on the car. That gets pricey for quality work. Good luck!
