I am looking at a 2008 Aero Vert that is brand new and never titled at a dealer. The window on the car is $99335, is 82k too much to pay?
All depends. The aero cars pull a little higher price due to the fact there were so little of them made. Also consider that one was never titled. Make them an offer and see if they take it.
I offered 75 then 78 and he said he needed 82 and is still taking a hit. I know that net on the car was around 88.5 and he has been sitting on it since August of 2008 so his floor plan must be killing him. The car is an orange vert with H-spokes, navi, aero, bezel and here is the kicker, natural tan leather. I've seen a few cars out there with that gut including a few VVO cars. He claims this is the only car equipped this way from the factory with these options and I believe him. I'm not totally digging the tan but I can live with it and if not then Jon @ Parts Rack said he can help me out with some black panels out of a wreck!
Sounds like you've done alot of research. Not too many aero verts were built, fewer still in orange. A viper this unique can't be comparison shopped, you can't find another. As you said you can get 0% which is easily worth a 3-4K discount. This is the viper you want , go buy it for $82.
I would believe him about the rarity. Although there is no way for him to be sure that I know of. Only 65 orange convertibles were built.
Only 3 monotone orange with aero. I aero with white stripes and 1 with black stripes, so 5 total and you are one of 3 if it's a no stripe car. And the odds of having all those options no doubt make it 1 of 1. And that interior is beautiful on the orange car. And you are not going to find a violet convertible, only 11 were built and only one was an aero, he's a regular board member here.
I would grab this if I were you.
there is a graphite aero (no strpies) all other options ( red int.) in my area that is stunning...i got the impression 85-88 would get it done.
The car will be worth 60's the second you buy it...there's no way it will ever be worth 80's. If you want it because you absolutely have to have an 08 Aero VVO Vert, go buy it, but know you'll be 20k under what you paid the instant you sign off on it. I bet the car will sit there for a very long time at his asking price, or even @82k. It's not like they're selling like hotcakes. I have an 08 VVO vert that I bought with 395 miles on the clock, that had never seen rain, holds a world record for the fastest Viper bone stock production quarter ever and was/is pristine - and I paid 60's. Even at that, it'd be a tough to no-sell today in the 60's. Demand today is very low for these cars, which is why that 08's still sitting there after almost 2 years.
Amen to that. On the flip-side, I'm looking for a '08 SSG Green coupe or ACR that hasn't been tracked. Any leads are greatly appreciated. Timing was bad or I would have purchased Jamie Furman's ACR.
There's one for sale in the Classifieds
Nice car but looking for a coupe
