Whats V/S? I think you could sell that car for more then 5K if the door is the only thing wrong with it.

In that regard it's a good buy but there's the practicality involved.
On the other hand, who cares about logic when our passion for cars is involved. Some people ask me why I have two coupes.

For the year, the milage, and the only dmg being the door. I'd say its a good buy. You can always talk em down with cash in hand. Clean her up, repair that dmg and flip her for what she really runs for.

He already has an offer of $4700, I am topping the previous buyer and he accepted my offer. I have until 9 am monday to decide......cringe... just a few hours. I have a spare door so that's a non issue. Just trying to make sure it's worth it overall. I'll be keeping this one, so sometime within 6 months or later I'll get rid of one of my other two SC's.
