If it's as clean as it sounds then there is no shame in paying a reasonable price for a good car.

I know everyone wants to feel like they got some great deal when they make a purchase.
But if you plan to keep the car then the joy you get from it will outlast whatever price you paid.

Agreed. The initial price paid becomes less important with each passing year. In addition, I've spent a fair amount of money on plenty of other things like additional detailing supplies, spare parts to stash away, etc. that I had not anticipated at the beginning. Like the cost of the car itself, those expenses are now just water under the bridge. To me a sports car is a passion-based purchase and that tends to skew the logical spending formulas to a certain degree.

​​​@Daphty I am curious to know what you ended up deciding when it came to this car?

I think it's the correct price for the vehicle due to the color combination and the ap1 lip.
Tires seem original though?

Nice find, especially with the upgraded top.
