Wow, can't believe how much they're asking for the white one with all that body damage. Wtf?

The Silverstone looks a little off as well. Rear driver side bumper damage, scuffs on front bumper. The seats are wrong as you suggested. 06+ had the new style headrests. So, it might have been broken into, who knows.
wow jakes!

you have an Eagle Eye!!!

but yeah, the seats threw me off

thanks for the great help!

Saves me a bunch of time!!!!!!

2000 GPW, red and black interior.
1 owner. No accidents, paint work or turned bolts.
62,000 miles.

Needs a new softop. Driver seat bolster needs to be replaced and carpet has a hole.

Factory installed front lip, side strakes, and trunk spoiler.

Should be getting it for $7000

I'm looking at a 2001 silver car with 78k miles in Colorado. Car is in good condition although there is a 2 inch gash down the top of the left rear fender that is through the clear coat and there is also a small dent above the passenger handle door handle. Going from 1 to 2 feels a little notchy than the other gears so I am wondering if the synchro is going. Right now he says 14.5 is what he would part with it for but what do you guys think is a fair offer cause I don't want to low ball the guy since he seems like a honest guy.

That car isn't worth anywhere near 14.5k. Even if it was in perfect condition, at that mileage he'll be lucky to get anything over 12-12.5k.

I met the owner about 5 years ago, consult him about the car a lot and he wants it to go to a good home.

I hope to pick it up before the new year.
