Default white on white...

I recently test drove a 1999 white on white convertible with 28,700 miles on it. The car was in excellent condition (the leather on the inside was shiny, no streaks in the seats). The top was a little dirty, but the car is ~6yrs old. What would you guys be willing to pay for the color combo? They were asking $33,000 for it.

I've only seen one other forum member with the color combination on here.

Way too high, regardless of the color combo. I would say it should be around $25K or a little less.

You guys are echoing what I thought. I counter-offered for $23k as a starting point and the guy shrugged it off for now, said they could sell it in a week. I feel sorry for whoever pays that much for it.

Paid $34.5k for my 02 mag red vert 2 months ago. Car had 20k miles. If I got a good buy on my car, then this one is way too much for $33k.

I agree, it seemed like too much for a '99!
