That's exactly what i was thinking

Like others, I wonder why so cheap. I would think it would be a at least a 12K car.

I didn't notice the dash and pod cracks in the listing. Probably cheap because it needs some interior work. Needs some detailing under the hood as well, but still looks like decent value if a PPI checks out.

"Nugett Brown Metallic" Maybe it's my screen but that car looks more rose than brown. Does anyone know if this was a standard color or a sample to order custom color?

I like it for its oddness. I especially like the Mahogany interiors.

I think the fact that he's willing to sell it at all under his name says volumes for the condition its in. Must've come up relatively well in inspection.

Lots of options on it..

018 Sport steering wheel with elevated hub
158 Radio "Monterey" - 86 "Reno" - 87
220 Locking differential
302 Type designated on rear end
418 Protective side mouldings
490 Hi-Fi sound system
494 2 speakers on back shelf
494 Amplifier system
513 Lumbar support - right seat
513 Driver's Seat Lumbar Support
533 Alarm system
537 Left seat with positrol and lumbar
538 Right seat with positrol and lumbar
570 High output air conditioner
586 Lumbar support - left seat
650 Sunroof

The dash and pod are just a good reason to get some leather work

Just flip those air intake tubes around and it's good to go.

Standard metallic color at the time. There are several around with same interior color combo also.

Wow! I can't believe I didn't catch that. But I'm even more surpised that Wilhoit didn't catch it.

Thanks Errka. I'm still wondering if the color is more brown or rose as it appears on my screen.

Mahogany has a nice warm tone to it. It's really pretty!

Love the Mahogany seat upholstery, but not the color of the carpeting (or the exterior color...). I wonder what it would look like with black carpeting?

The listing says he took it in on trade for a GTS, so my guess is he had it shined up and is trying to make a quick buck on it. He probably only put $500 into detailing, so maybe he gave the GTS buyer an $8k credit, which he figures he can make back easy, and maybe even make a few extra bucks off of it at $9975.
