Default Heads up on a 95 Rivera Blue cab

Was out getting some parts for one of our cars and drove by a local dealer who has a Riviera Blue cab for sale at $16,995 and thought someone might be interested. Stopped and gave it a very quick once over, black interior, 114k mi, very slight nerf on the right front corner, top in good shape, interior fair to good, tiptronic. It's at Reliable Pontiac/Cadillac in Roseville, CA, salesman's name was Jesse Ibea. If you want a phone number pm me. He said they had pics on their site but I couldn't find any, they just got it in apparently.

Usual disclaimers apply.

Pretty good price for a Smurf 993.

Sorry no pics. Went to their website and the car isn't up yet and I've not figured out how to take pics with my cell phone and then get them on the 'puter.

it's a tip.
And how much of a premium does everyone think a high mile cab should command because it is Rivera Blue?

Default Auction Pricing

A light blue 1995 993 Cab w/112K miles sold for $14,500 last Feb. Manual trans, however. So it may have been traded in below that figure. Not sure if this light blue cab is the highly-coveted smurf blue.

They offset somewhat? +$5K for the Rivi, -$8K for the tip? So if it was a 6 speed, it would be $3K more or $20K?

I'm just chuckin' wild ballparks here. From beat-up commuters to thoroughly loved RL cars, the 100K+ mile market probably has the widest variation of values. Then you factor in the overall economic suppression of all but the finest examples (i.e. truly rich guys always have dough)

I bet they got it for 10K in a trade. Just looking at it on the website, looks decent enough. Wasn't this area hit pretty hard by the housing crunch?

Nice price for a Tip if the car checks out.
