I guess that he is going by the ole...... Start high and see if you can get it? Is it me or is $18500.00 to much for this buggy?

Maybe he type-o an extra zero and means $1850... yea, probably not, but I'm with you $18500 is just way wrong.

[BrianB]

C'mon its red, of course it's worth that much

[KIM-P]

Could be a typo, I can see him asking 8500 for it. Thats more reasonable. Or hes just really proud of his work. Or he really doesnt want sell it.

[Faron]

Ahhhh Great, I am not the only person who thinks he is high.

That is awfully pricey in my opinion as well. Primarily for these reasons:

1. Stock SP motor....you usually see much better motors on high end buggies
2. Cheap seats...for $18k I would not expect to see those cheap poly seats in front and a poor fitting seat in the back.
3. Original VW gas guage...Come on. For $18k you need some nice gauges
4. No full cage...again, for that price you need a full cage
5. Boring wheels
6. No real horn. OK, thats a pet peeve, but for $18 large a real horn isn't unreasonable.
7. Claims "high quality" paint job...look at the fender in his link. Lots of peel. Here is my "garage quality" painted fender:



I sold my real Manx for less than 1/2 that amount.
