Is this a good deal? 50th Anv.
Ok guys and girls. I just bought a 2003 50th Anv. Vert with only 9700 miles on it for $32,500. It is the Anv. red with the magnesium wheels, 6 spd magnetic shocks and all the other goodies. Just thought a I would get some good responses from everyone on here. Thanks in advance for the replys. Also, I just sold my 2006 GTO with only 3244 miles on it.

Yes thats a good price for that kind of mileage. That car stickerd for 57,000 if it is an Anniv. edition with the magnetic adjustable shocks! I only have 1200 miles on mine, and I was hoping it was worth more than what you just paid for yours. Good deal!

If you are happy, that's what matters. I'd say that was a decent deal you got on the car. Enjoy your new ride.

I'd say you bought it for a "fair" price to you and the seller.
As long as you're happy with it,that's the big hurdle without
buyer's remorse. 
Congrats!!!

Sounds about right to me...
I looked for over a year before I bought my 01. I love the 03 AE. The Anniversary Red is great color, the shale interior is gorgeous, and the Selective Ride Control is standard and a nice feature.
I think, with that mileage, you did fine. As others have said, the critical factor is whether YOU like it. Obviously you do, or you wouldn't have bought it.
Just enjoy the heck out of it and don't worry about the price. It's water under the bridge at this point anyway.

You got an amazing deal!!! Want to know why? Good luck going down the street and finding an 03 convertable anniv with under 10k miles. I recently traded my 02 for an 07 and at the dealer they had an 02 Z06 with only 2k miles on it. It was blue and mint. I am telling you that car was brand spankin new. Its hard to put price on these cars. Remember they don't produce that body style anymore and finding one with under 10k miles well you did very well. The C5 style is a classic. Unlike the C6 (which is what I have) with its headlights that don't pop up I am sure the C7's will be similar. I traded mine in because of the 0% so it made sense. And I wanted less miles since I had 70k on mine. So again to answer your question yes you got a killer deal.
