1999 Vert
I bought my 1999 Torch Red Vert in December with 46,000 miles on it for $18,500. I have no regrets and I couldn't be happier! I looked at many, including a few that were newer and had less miles on them.
This one had everything I was looking for and was cared for, and maintained, by an older gentleman who lovingly spent hours maintaining it. He didn't race it, didn't abuse it, and the final selling point for me was that every radio station was set to easy listening or classic oldies stations! (The real measuring stick for buying used cars!!)
