Seems too good to be true...
Salvage title is the reason the price is low.

2003 NFR, 60k miles, all services completed. Clean title, no accidents. One owner who bought it new. Exterior is 8/10. some minor scratches and I really mean minor.
Interior is pretty much flawless.
No modifications, car is 100% stock.

Comes with NFR OEM hardtop

$16,000

Also, this is in the northwest where it rains alot and hardtops are very much sought after.

I dont think its a steal, but I dont think hes asking way too much either. What do you think?

14,500 w/hardtop?

How much would that car be worth w/out hardtop then?

Seems like they are going for near that price w/out the hardtop around here.....

Thanks for the quick reply.

Alright, this is what was stolen and replaced.

Actually, here's a quote from the email.

" But yeah a lot was stolen! The only thing left inside the car was the carpet and parking brake! all the drivetrain was gone, they even took the front brake lines! It was a fun project putting it back together.

When I find the pics I will send them to you!"

Honestly if you think that is the right car for you, then you will buy it no matter how much it is. Even at $16k your not getting ripped off if it is in very good condition, mechanically and cosmetically. I would probably only spend $14,500 on it because you can get one just like that for around 12-12,500 without a hardtop. Then you can find nice hardtops here on the forum for around $2000. So $14,500 is what I would do for it. Maybe $15k if I really wanted it.

2000 Sebring with red interior
60,000 miles
12,955

2000 Silverstone with red interior
99,000 miles
10,999
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=u...se&rdpage=thumb

2002 Suzuka
48,500 miles
13,255
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=u...se&rdpage=thumb

I'm trying to pretty much save as much as possible, but still trying to get an S that will last a decently long time. I'm going for a loan tuesday.

I would get the Suzuka, but I'm looking at around 16,000 after I get it home(fly to destination and drive it back to Ontario, it's a 12 hour drive there and 12 hours back, so a hotel stay too)

The Silverstone looks in REALLY clean from the pictures for nearly 100,000 miles, so I'm still interested in that one, and I might even offer him 10,000.
