Don't know for sure if the price is right but it seems that way. Gorgeous car, though!

Also, it already has the Sport pack wheels, clear taillights and N400 sills which are very desirable options. Lightning Silver is a great color. I say "get it" ! :-)

Note the "THIS VEHICLE MAY NOT HAVE THE OPTIONS OR EQUIPMENT LISTED." disclaimer. Since they list things like "Keyless Start", which has never been available on the Vantage, I would make sure I verify exactly what the car has before deciding whether or not you like the car and whether or not the price is reasonable.

Agree with Jay Davis; best thing to do is run the VIN by your local AM service department. They should be able to list out for you every option the car from the factory. If you call Marin, ask for Mosche and if you call up Los Gatos, ask for Marc or Jordan. I'm sure either of them would be happy to assist a potential customer.

With respect to the price, if the car is fully loaded, I'd pull the trigger (or maybe try to negotiate down to an even $100K). I got my 2009 a year ago fully loaded with only 3,200 miles and paid $94,500 (but it didn't have the side sills).

I like this car... As long as the car-fax is clean, I'd pull the trigger after negotiating my best possible price. I even like that the car has been driven 8K miles... it's been sorted.

You also probably want to make sure it's "Non-Smoker. Here's another possibility

I noticed something on the rear of the car. Isnt the "Vantage" emblem suppose to be on the right (passenger) side, not the driver side? Was it moved?
