Oh, okay. There was red one with gray stripes at the shoot as well. It had Washington plates.

To the OP, if the car is well-maintained, and the paint is in excellent condition, I would say $24K is a fair price. New tires is helpfull too.

No offense Phil!

Me too, I"ve only met one or two that I wouldn't rather shoot on sight. Insurance salepeople don't do much for me either. I was a "car guy" and thought I was the kind of person fellow car people would want to buy from. I wasn't some clown that walked over to a window sticker and just regurgitated everything from the sticker. It's funny, most people that can buy a car, can also read a window sticker.

I caught a catholic priest lying to me and I said "father, you're not telling me the truth" he said "that's negotiating Phil" His justification of it. Don't get me wrong, on the whole the industry has the reputation it deserves.................probably always will. Now that I am away I hate it. After 8+ years away I still have nightmares about it. Feels like I did time in a POW camp.

um... yes it does
