Default What's It Really Worth???

You have no idea how tempting this car is to buy, but at what price?? It is almost a twin to mine and would be like buying my car all over again. I enjoy these cars so much, especially this color combo. I plan on keeping mine for as long as possible but imagine if I could buy this. I wish I never saw it. Thank heavens he wants so much $$$. I can't even begin negotiations at this price point..

To me it's worth less than a car that is driven sparingly to keep everything in working order. That low of miles scares me. For a collector maybe that price is ok but I still don't see how it's worth more than sticker even if rare because not many are left. The market gets thin for that car at that price.

The model year, trans type, commonality of color and lack of being any sort of special edition (CETA, 30th) are the main factors holding this one back. His asking price on Hemmings is about ~$10k higher than original MSRP. Ebay price is better but, even in today's crazy market, probably still not going to get any offers beyond MSRP on this one, IMO.

I could see spending up to 35k on it...if you had to have it. Finding another like it is a little difficult.

With that said, my love for it runs out at 30k...but I definitely feel its worth 30.

$46,000 or best offer?

If I really wanted the car, I'd offer roughly $MSRP for it. Definitely would want to have resources to keep it as a Show Car.

As my personal value for it $20k max since it's sat unused for 22 years and would need a lot to make a reliable driver out of it instead of a garage queen.
