I recently posted about a 97 that goes for a PPI next week. It's a 38K mile car in extremely nice condition for an asking price of $38K, I can get it for $35K. All service up to date including TB/WP due to age. Red over black. Second owner, few minor scratches, minor curb rash on wheel, somewhat slow drivers window, trunk struts going.
Well, when it rains, it pours and another car popped up that might intrigue me even more. 98 w/30K, one owner, new tires, 30K service done but not TB/WP. Pretty much flawless. Saw it late last night in the owners garage and then outside in fading light so although I think it looks perfect, will need to look at it again in bright light. Ran well, no noises. It's spa yellow over black. Asking 35K, believe I could get it for $33K but even if not, ends up the same price as the 97.
Both cars fully documented and dealer serviced. Carfax spotless on both.
First, little surprised pricing had dropped this much on NA2-T cars - is this happening everywhere or have I just lucked into something here. Anyway, prefer red but not by much. Don't think the owner of the red will go for 33K. So, looking for advice as to which one will depreciate less or be easier to sell later should the need arise (suspect the red one). How important is the age limitation on the TB/WP service? Unfortunately, I have to go see the yellow again today and he's going to want an offer or move on to the next person on the list. Obviously I can put off final purchase by requiring a PPI but have a feeling they will both pass with flying colors and really don't want to hold up both owners since they have several serious inquiries and are both super nice people.
