$4600.
Sticker price when new was around $130,000
The hard top is a big a$$ piece that comes off, and the soft top folds up from under the covers in the rear.
The hard top isn't that heavy, just and akward 2-person job. It is completely automatic when it comes to latching & unlatching- hold a button and it unlatches, top put back on you simply set it down with the pins in the holes and it sinches it down. The convertible top coming up is like a circus of hydraulic actuators.
It all works perfectly.
In fact, every single thing on the car works. AC blows cold. The ridiculous 12-way (or whatever they are) power seats with memory work in all directions. The Little wipers for the headlamps work.
Interior is spotless other than a rip in the drivers seat bottom that is covered by a seat cover.
Exterior has scrapes in the bumper cover plastics (woman before seemed to use the 'park-by-feel' method a few times). A door-ding here and there, and some touch-up spots where there were some rock chips. Everything is straight and it has some of the best body gaps and sealing I have ever seen.
It's surely a ticking-time-bomb, but for the money, who cares.
I told her she has two options:
1. Dump a few thousand into getting everything on it serviced and fix any problems found. Have a really nice car afterwards.
2. Do only the basics- change the oil. Don't give a f&%# about it, drive it as-is, see how far she goes. When it finally breaks, fix it if it is cheap and if not, part it out for what it is worth (which, in parts, is more than she paid for it)
