Awesome colour, too bad the pictures are low res. Never heard of Oak Green - Jeff?

I don't understand why people don't post a price. A for sale like that will get him lots of callers who won't have the money. When I don't see a price that usually means the seller has some unrealistic expectations.

That said, it seems sad to have such a nice car and not drive it.

Troo, troo.

as unique as that color may be..not at all to my liking. great low mileage, if the price is right it may be worth buying it and then repaint the car

[rhudeboye]

I don't like the color either but the thought of respraying a rare, low mileage, well kept car doesn't sit well either. I'd rather see it go to someone who appreciated it "as is".

very good point, it would be a shame to do that.. however, if I something ever happened to my car and I needed to replace it, this would certainly be one option I would consider..

[tamathumper]

Forget it, the window sticker is torn. That's no collector's car.

[rhudeboye]

@ Thumper

The wheels are nice as well

[robadams56]

Agree with Rhude.....if this is correct mileage, it should be kept as original as possible. Wheels look like aftermarket and if I am seeing correctly, calipers may have been painted godl or yellow. Would love to see better pics.

As to the color, I like the unique color but think Aventurine is a much more appealing color.

I emailed the seller via the CL posting and this is the response I got!!!

I,am asking $35000.00

Really???
So now you all know... Don't think he is going to get many offers from members here...

[rxter]

I hope he gets 50.

[ds968]

I hope he gets 50.

+1. Even if it was in a color I liked I would not pay more than 25k for it, but I would love to see one of these cars sold for $ 50 k, or $ 40k or even $30k.. with that transaction duly recorded and documented in a manner which would allow everyone access... If for no other reason but because there is no better case which can be made with an insurance company re the value of your car when damaged or totaled than providing comparable sales data.

If he finds the right buyer for the color and options who wants to experience what is essentially a 1 year old car, he will get his price. That person however, needs to be aware that depreciation will increase rapidly until the value is more in line with the market.

Unlike others in this thread this is one of my favorite colors and I wish I had not let one slip away from me 6 years ago almost to the day.

[tamathumper]

$35K?

I,love the comma.

[ds968]

$35K?
I,love the comma.

maybe it's William Shatner selling that car. " I ( pause ) am ( accentuate ) asking ( accentuate and then pause again ) 35,000 ."

[DaveN]

It's Dutch. They do funny things with comma and periods in their numeracy. Wocka Wocka

[tamathumper]

Check again...

I,don't believe it was in the numerals.
