Rev Dennis Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 DAMN!!!! I found a like new 08 SGT. Blue vert. 3000 miles. All original window stickers. Cloth top. Convertible top boot. http://apps.dealerconnection.com/dealers/redhillford/used-inventory?&_eventId_vehicledetails=true&vin=1ZVHT85H885141014&dealerPACode=01405&certifiedPreownedImg=false They are asking $28K, I am willing to go $25K. Or do you think it is worth what they are asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) Wow, $28,000 sounds exceptionally reasonable. Edited January 7, 2013 by springer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2+2 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 If it really is in perfect shape that price is about right. It could have some warranty on it since it is at a Ford dealer and that would be piece of mind and worth some extra . Try your 25 K and see what they say. .

Rev Dennis Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) They won't budge. Since it is rare to find such low mileage I guess that's why. It looks like brand new. It does come with a 3 month/4000 mile 100% warranty. What the hell. I guess I'll do it. When I am laying on my death bed I'll be pissed if I don't.

LGSchmidtJr Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Rev Does the hood scoop look correct? It looks a little different to me, or it may just be the lack of coffee today;) Laurence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

07SGT Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 if it is truly perfect, never wrecked, never driven in road salt, etc.............I would jump on that before it is gone. Prices on convertibles are lower in the winter. They know no one is looking for convertibles in January in PA. Come spring time that will jump 2-3 K IMO.

Rev Dennis Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) "Does the hood scoop look correct?" On my white SGT the scoop has 4 bolts which I believe means it is original. This one appears to be riveted = "fixed". And yes, as stated in another thread, I did get it. It will be my daily driver. Thanks all.

Rev Dennis Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 ".....I hope it doesn't see any winter salt roads." Now that would be very disrespectful. No. No. No. I have a Toyota 4Runner for those days. And Jer - I want the engine cap set, but they are all gone I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

07SGT Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Reverend, I do hope you are jesting re that being a daily driver. Correct me if I am wrong but was there not only about 300+ convertibles made in 2008. That means you have instant collectability for the future. if you have a 2007 then it is one of 5,500+ but the convertibles will be worth more sooner, in my opinion. Good Luck.

Wayne Grey Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Dennis, There were 583 Manual Tranny Convertibles made in 08. The vista blue total on Manual converts was 555. I'm sure your car will never be hurt - enjoy it - that is why Carroll made these beauties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Dennis Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 It will be a daily driver for a little while anyway. We'll see. Thanks for the info and advise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nojoke4true Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Yes Dennis please drive her. Drive her far and fast. Road rash, door dings and orginal tire wear can be expected on a DD so fret not. These cars are meant to be driven is the gospel spoken here. I would just like you to hand me my garage queen title back that you stole, only after you hit 7,100 on the OD. Thank you very much I'm giving you only one spring and summer to make up 4,000 miles so drop the top and get to grinning. Once again, congrats on a nice low mileage find.

NordicShelby Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Yeah Dennis I wish I had an extra $30 Grand laying around I would have picked it up and tucked it away because in 30 years from now when my 08 SGT vert is totally trashed I can do it all over again with a nice mint one.
