not bad... especially since it's exactly what you want... tho given the year/mileage, I'd try to get the price down a little further.

I thought first rule of car buying is to never buy a blue car.

Not sure how many cars you've driven in your search, I probably drove 20 before pulling the trigger a couple weeks ago.....I knew the one I bought was "the one" before I got out of the parking lot on the test drive.....make sure you have that feeling, if not the right one will come along.

just bought an 04 with same options only a convertible. Had Corso extreme exhaust and was immaculate. Gave $19K for it. Just to give you an idea.
By the way, congrats on your upcoming purchase. These cars are awesome.

Seems pretty reasonable to me...if it is what you want and it passes your inspection/road test, I say go for it...
