Seems reasonable to me. Is there something negative about this car I'm not aware of?

Smaller market for a formula.. Looks like a nice car.

The muscle car market is not there like it used to be and with the world as it is, that's more like a 52K car, not 88K.

You are a minority, but that's not a bad thing. I have a Ascot Formula and cant imagine painting it the original color when its finally back together. I feel the color hurts this SD car and lack of detailed pics underside, etc. Colors are very subjective, but we all know some "sell" ( resale red) . My car has D98 which I think helps in the case of Silver. If I owned this car it would be insured and driven.

LOL.. 52k is what I paid for mine 6 years ago..

I like the color! I always thought silver looked great on 2nd gens.

It will sell eventually. 52 seems a little low however 88 seems way to high

Obviously I like lesser known colors - see avatar.

With the way that the economy is at this time prices have come down. Look at the number of SD's that have been offered for sale since the stock market decline in December and the Covid-19 outbreak. This is the 3rd or 4th SD formula for sale since December along with 4 or 5 SD trans-am's. The trans-am has always gone at a higher price even though there are less formula's built. Just my 2 cents.

Agree! so what do we think think this SD should sell for in todays world? Does $68K seem more realistic?

Yes...I would think even higher, It's a prestigious car. I'm thinking at auction it would start at 70K and quickly go up. I think you would be truly tasked to find anything not correct on this car. It has won multiple POCI awards. I know better than to take my car there. While my car is close to correct, it's not close to POCI correct.

Anybody know if the owner is a member on here.

Seller dropped price to $80,000. Seller appears motivated.

Guess mine isn't worth as much as I thought it was..

Pretty close to a twin of your car.

I think that the car being an auto w/air conditioning Formula in that color will keep it just south of $70K.

A rare and interesting car. Agree the market isn't great for sellers right now. But things could change. SD-455 cars are "pinnacle cars". Last year for the best looking 2nd gen cars, first year for the SD-455. Agree the color could hurt the value for some buyers, but it is rare. Same with Brewster Green. Very rare, but some people just don't like it. Personally, in this market, if he were to drop into the mid 70's somewhere, it would be gone pretty quick. I would love to have it and I would enjoy respectfully running the hell out of it.

With an 80k ask, it effectively is a mid 70's price.

This Formula is for sale at other venues still for $95K (as of Friday evening). It appears he may not be as "motivated" a seller as we thought.
