You're right, I should have qualified my comment.
Since there were 621 total 2012 base cvts, I guess they're all rare. With 60 Carbon Flash built, they were the 4th most popular color, behind Torch Red, White, and Silver.
What I should have said was rare does not always equal desirable.
I think the CE narrow body looks awful. And I'm not even a GrandpaSport koolaid drinker.

This car will go to either a narrow body nut, or someone who doesn't know or care about the difference, amd just likes amazingly hot looking cars.

My car is a 4LT GS vert that was fully loaded minus NPP. I am the 2nd owner, I purchased it at 2 years old and 4675 miles. The 1st owner had added a Billy Boat PRT exhaust, which I swapped out for an NPP this summer. It's an auto and has 25k miles. I would have to think long and hard about selling if someone put $45k cash in my hands. I really love the car and don't think I could turn loose of it unless I had to.

Holy cow....reading this thread I'm feeling much better about what I paid for my CE GS...although I don't believe either car will sell for anywhere near what they are listed for.

mine is identically equipped, but a Coupe (all Stock) just passed 15k. I MIGHT take 45.... in cash. MIGHT
