I think they are black - just shiney from the light.

They claim that BAT isn't "real" pricing, as only bottom-feeders shop and bottom-feeder cars are listed; therefore pricing is much lower than "real world" pricing. I told them that this theory makes no sense due to arbitrage; the cars are as clean as any, and if prices were consistently low on BAT, then everyone would shop there and arbitrage out the price differences.

When I sold my 2006 Club Coupe a few months ago, I got an offer and drew a straight line from one which had recently ended on BAT down to my car, which had higher mileage. It was reasonable and "real" data point, not some asking price on a car that had been sitting at a dealer for 210 days.

[QUOTE=TheTorch;16517978]$76,000. This is a clean presentation. My only criticism would be those silver seatbacks: they look totally wrong with the natural leather and black.

/QUOTE]

I agree; Piano black would be perfect! My biggest complaint about our 2006 Club was the silver setbacks as well, given that it had the Azzurro blue painted center console.

This is a very nice car, I didn’t think I would be the type that would go for the feeling of driving inside of a baseball glove, but I really think this one could change my mind. I am going high, $77,977

I loved the natural leather interior on my black C2S, but it definitely turned off buyers at resale time. It just wasn't what people were "looking for". OTOH, my cocoa interior on cream white .2 was very popular!

Haha, grudge much. A bit out of context and exaggerated, but carry on if it makes you feel better.

That black turbo is sweettttt.

I agree the piano black seatbacks would be a homerun and fit the car like a glove. This car is a gamer. I’m pitching $79,500.

I believe this captures everyone’s bids correctly. Manotexas got his $79k bid in before me and Bloose993tt is in there too at $75.5k.
