If this is the car I can tell you exactly what the wholesale value is. They rate it as below average condition.

04/09/08 W PALM Lease $41,000 61,860 Below BLUE 6G 6 Yes

I'd say depending on low 50's.

high 40's

That car in the picture is not Lapis Blue. Midnight blue maybe, although it looks black in the picture to me.

It's still for sale on the net.....any one recognize it or have a history. I think they're asking 46.9. It has a 1 owner carfax.

OEM or aftermarket GT2 nose?

50 tops.

Agreed.
Ask for a picture of the options label under the bonnet.

Here is the listing with lots more photos (not of options label though).

the driver's scuff plate looks a little worn, but acceptable.
Maybe the lighting makes the color look dark.
It seems there a lot of those in South Florida. Although not too many one-owner cars. What is a realistic price for it? I've seen high mileage ones go for 41K, and low mileage ones go for 69K and up. Surely someone on here recognizes it, it's had the same owner for 7 years. The CARFAX reads:

This seems odd (not odd enough to deter me) for a new car, unless maybe it was a demo.

I'd be leary, who the f@#ck puts a gt2 nose and vent on a TT and leaves the rest stock?
Answer, nobody.
Probably had a hard life, modded to hell and, now back to 'stock'. Very poser-esque/bush league to add gt2 noses and vents to tts imo. There is no aerkit on that car either. Be careful of the collection, not a great track record from what I've heard.
