Still considering buying a droptop 240 as a project.

I have a pretty good idea of what they're worth.

I kinda want to ask this seller if the KA is gold-plated, or maybe there's a rich nympho included in the deal?

you must be paying a premium for the dodge viper white stripes. as we all know, white stripes make a car go faster :)

dude when you buy rims and put them on your car, you take the MSRP price of the rims, add 10% and add that to the maximum price that kelly blue book gives you!

That dude will never sell that car for that much.....

even with a new top, new interior and as clean as it looks, i wouldn't give him even full KBB for it. picking up a car that's had some minor work done by someone who you don't know is qualified or not is too risky. i payed 6900 for my car only because it had an engine swap, intake/exhaust, FMIC, and some custom plumbing done to it, and the car was in great physical condition. Not to mention all the work was done by someone who's been fixing nissans for over 15 years.

Well, yeah, it's overpriced. Wait for it to go down before saving it is what I meant.

My budget is nowhere NEAR that.

Rmemember - I gotta feed this screaming-arse kid named NICO before I buy a 'vert. :)

Maybe we should e-bomb him telling him what the car is worth...Nah. I don't even want a red one.

Bart, were the droptops only made in red, white and black?

for that price, it better include a hand job at the least. From his entire family. And not just immediate either.
