Virtually the identical car, except it is Ocean rather than Midnight Blue, is listed at Marshall Goldman.

The asking price is right at 100k!

Maybe yes and may be no. Marshall Goldman had a 3k mile TT a few weeks ago that he had listed for $120k. It sold in two weeks. He would not tell me the selling price, but I doubt that it was south of $100k. Davidiak had a car listed at $99k (1996, 8xxx miles) that just sold. I think the right color, low mileage TTs are still commanding big premiums. Somewhere north of 15k miles, the prices seem to fall off precipitously.

and that is a 3K-mile car, which is insane to the tune of several hundred dollars worth of value depreciation every time just to drive to fill up the tank. Not to mention the high price tag just for the privilege.
BTW, at that price, those 3K-mile cars should come with a coupon good for a total rebuild, since they are driven at most 300 miles a year, or less than 30 miles a month, for ten years. And maybe a flatbed tow truck thrown in so it can be showboated but never driven.

If the car is genuine and passes a pre purchase inspection with flying colours. You personally love the car then why get hung up on a few $1000. What seems expensive today can soon look cheap tomorow. As a very good friend of mine in the trade said. Buy the best car that you can find at what you can afford and you won't go wrong.
