Guys, just wondering if a 2004 Yellow/Blk E-Gear Mucie with 14K miles is a good deal at $149K. Front bumper has been refinished and resprayed. Sounds like it might have cracked or hit something at one point. Shows clean title, no frame damage, and airbags never deployed. Recent clutch job.

Vin# is ZHWBU16S04LA00963 Anyone able to run a Carfax?

Assuming PPI checks out "ok", is this a good price? Or will the market continue to fall for these V-12's?

Surprised the Superleggeras are now in the $160K range...just saw that today.

Thanks.

 

I think the market will continue to fall for at least a month or two

 

or three or four...

I don't see why these cars will ever "appreciate". The rate of depreciation might slow down, but will never stop...
I am not familiar with the Murci market, especially pre-LP, but that sounds a tad high for these times.

 

Yeah..

 

Actually someone from a different forum just got me the Carfax. Let's just say I'll pass on this one.

 

Glad to hear were you saved. Care to share what's wrong?
Now I really wonder what's up with the Murci market.

There's also a thread over a F-chat. Kevin (Catsexotics) has added some interesting tidbits.

When dealing with $100K+ (or even $50K+) cars for that matter, I'd prefer to deal with something without any questionable history.

 

looks like it was in an accident

 

that car has been around the block a couple times..
