Thank you for trying to help me!
Sadly, those are not fairway green, but dark bowling green. Fairway green was only produced in 97-98.

Are they listed as fairway green? Didn't find them when searching for "fairway green" on Craigslist.
I'm not familiar with CL tho, so I could be doing something wrong..

That one is interesting! A bit pricy though, a similar car with the 6spd manual was just sold for 13250.
Do you have a link to this ad?

Thanks for trying to help me, but that ad is 10 years old.
He hasn't been on the forum since 2009.

Here's the reason I think your not finding the car you want at the price you want.

In 1997 they only produced 155 Fairway Green coupes (obviously no convertibles) of the 155 with 6 speeds appox. 53 cars could've been produced.

In 1998 they produced 129 Fairway Green coupes of those approx 28 coupes w/6 speed's

For your preferred car a convertible they produced a whopping 60 Convertibles, w/ 6 speeds 14 cars.

Hopefully your not too picky on interior color and top color.

Now of those how many are decent miles, no accidents, etc

I know the numbers. That's not a reason to give up!
A fairway green/light oak/6sp convertible with 60.000 miles and clean history was just sold for $13.250 via autotrader, so it's not like it's impossible even though it's rare.

Default Fairway Green

I purchased the car you're referring to on Autotrader. GM only made 16 of the Fairway Green convertibles with the 6 spd. I'm glad I was able to find one. I think they're beautiful cars.

Good luck with your search. One's bound to pop up for sale at some point.
