Looking into taking the plunge. Found 2002 with 5420 miles. Carfax shows one owner. Price is 68,500. Only real negative is blue leather interior.
Going to arrange for PPI Monday!

Stay tuned!

I was wondering why the car was so cheap, then you mentioned the blue interior, I hope the exterior is white because blue interior is a resale value killer.

I know the dark blue interior is not the greatest, but considering it's the cleanest and lowest mileage(5200) I've found with one owner, I'm willing to live with it.

I think the blue interior will be a problem when you go to re sell.
For that kind of money you should be totally in love with it, not "I'll live with it. If it was wheels or something you could easily change it would be one thing.
Wait for the right car

Thumbs up

Well, bought the car, even got a few more bucks off the price! Interior is better than I thought. More fun than any Ferrari I've owned.

I will upload pictures when the database here is fixed.
