    Hi All. Long time lurker here and I'm about to pull the trigger on my first F-car. I've been looking at this Cali T and was wondering what would be a fair purchase price. Buttons look sticky and there is noticeable wear on the side seat bolster. Not a ton of options from what I can tell. Any input would be welcome. Thanks!

    Nice color. Low miles. That looks to be a reasonably optioned car ... Magneride, shields, carbon wheel, upgraded rims ... just has the plain seats instead of Daytona or backbones, and they are not the heated memory seats which is very nice to have in a convertible, depending on where you live. If they will fix the sticky buttons and include a 2-year New Power warranty with the car, I'd be happy in the $130-135k range.

    ^Not much to add to this great advice.

    TdF is a nice color, especially with beige interior. Claims to be an Atelier build but I didn't see anything obviously special in the spec; I'd ask about that.

    I'll echo the comments above, it has the options I considered essential on mine- 20" diamond wheels, Magneride and Carbon fiber steering wheel, plus low miles. If it's a CPO car as it should be, I would also be happy in the $130-135K range as well. I think it will sell fast, grab it if you like it.

    I agree with the above comments.

    My additional input - Tell them to make the car CPO, add 2 year New Power Warranty, tell them you will take it for $130K quick sale.

    Thanks guys! I put in an offer and hoping it's accepted. I offered exactly the above with the additional request of all stickies fixed and new battery. Car is already CPO so should be fine there. We shall see....

    I am just about at the "offer" stage, too, so please post your progress!

    I have my hunt narrowed to 4 different Calis--none exactly perfect but close!

    Ok, deal is done, just waiting on the paperwork to be finalized. I was able to get a very slight price discount and 2-year new power warranty included at that price. Stickies currently being worked on. Hoping for a delivery next week or will dive the 320 miles to pick it up!
