My father has finally decided to get a summer toy.
He wants a hard top convertable, and has always liked the look of the spyders, plus the room of the car.
He's pretty fussy, so the car needs to be pretty clean, and straight.
we are probably looking to go around DR500ish~ 17 psi pump gas, so if it's stock or up to that level, that's fine. Much higher than that and my mother will be afraid to drive it.
He is looking for a red one, but will also do black on black.
I believe he's willing to spend up to 20k on a nice car, but then it will have to be pretty nice.
Thanks! Adam

I've seen spyders with 120K+ miles go for 25K and up...
I did see a deal on a red one on autotrader for 22K a few weeks ago. It's not far from here, and I'd be happy to check it out for you if you set it up.

Yeah, the spidey's go for mad cash yo. You will have serious trouble finding one for less than $20K. I originally was going to buy one, saw how much more they were, and went slow.

Ok, so I had a chit chat with my father last night, and he's willing to go higher in price.
So what does a good condition, mid milage spyder go for?
Still prefer red, deal with black on black.
And he's gonna stop out in minnie-soda to look at that car on a business trip.

If you're patient, you can probably find a really nice one in the 25K range. Check ebay and 3si every other day or so.
I *almost* baught a black one with 69K and 15Gs for 21K on 3si a couple months ago.
