Just purchased a 2005 black based coupe manual with 19k in mint condition. Paid $9k for it. Did I get screwed or good deal? Car runs perfect not a scratch garage kept one owner.

Will need new tires soon due to originals starting to dry rot. Any tire recommendation for doing autocross?

Thanks

Biff,

Welcome, for value its hard to tell. I would think you could have gotten a limited or roadster for that price but the low miles helps the high price. Its all about the value to you.

Enjoy!

Sounds like a great deal to me. Where else are you going to get a 11,000 mile "Mercedes" powered sports car for less money?
My 04 has nothing that a Base car doesn't have that I couldn't live without. Besides that, being the lightest weight "NA" car, they should be the fastest.
Enjoy the heck out of it, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome.
You did fine.
+Fireamx said it best.

Yes, one can find a higher mileage limited for that. But in truth, most of us here stole our cars, even if we bought them new.

As for Tires, I have Hankooks on both of my Crossies. Bargain prices, Decent wear and they hook up just fine.



Enjoy.
