Go to the service writer and ask for a quote for an installed OEM soft top. Take that quote back to the salesman and ask that he deduct that from the asking price. My dealer quoted me an installed OEM top for $4,000. I bought from topsonline.com and had it installed for $1500 complete. That would save you a little money. Most dealers charge way too much anyway and using this technique you can use that fact against them. Good luck!!

went to go look at it today soft top had a cut in it u can see inside the car... Rear looks like its been in an accident .. ( rear bumper doesnt line up neither does trunk... and paint looks awful in the rear... ) front end is very good... Seats no wear
has 40k miles on it

i dont know if title is clean or salvage...
what do you guys think is a far price? one guy from dealership yesterday told me its going for 24k.. i doubt that....

That completely changes things IMO. I'd probably walk away from that one. These guys aren't being up front with you if there's that kind of discerible damage to the rear. I'd let be somebody else's problem not mine. A higher mileage, older S2K that's been well care for would be much better over the long run.
