Seems a bit steep, but a very nice bug none the less.

That is a real nice car. Is it just me or doesn't it look like that car had an awful lot of work done for only having 3200 miles on it after looking at the pics of the receipts?

They do have some nice cars on that site, but always at beyond premium prices.
For a real laugh, check out prices for barndoor buses! 50K for a rustbucket. That's a rich man's market. Weird how $$ creates exclusive clubs that most of us wouldn't dream of being part of.

That bug has been up there for quite a while, I think. So the answer is probably not worth the price, eh?

And yes: Oldbug charges absolute top dollar, but they usually handle the nicest cars.

I saw this a while back. I admit I tried to rationalize an excuse to pursue further.
