You are right, that is an unusaual color combo. Looks like grey beige with a white top. I can think of several interior colors that would do this car more justice; I wonder if that is the original package? Anyone else ever seen this combination?

I have a question regarding forum organization. Does everyone agree that posts like these should be in the General Discussion forum, or should they be in the For Sale fourm? Just asking. As Moderator, I can move threads to different forums, but I don't want to do that if nobody thinks it is necessary.

Post by: Douglas on April 17, 2006, 11:45:40: Definitely a General Discussion thread. It's not being posted by the seller and we'll probably discuss a lot more aspects of the car than the fact that it's for sale.

Post by: keesing on April 17, 2006, 13:01:47: I, for one, would like to continue to see more posts like this... eBay or others - whether we're in the market to buy or just like to see what's in the marketplace. It's interesting and keeps us abreast of who's selling what and maybe gives us ideas. I think the General Discussion area is best, and as others, like to see the feedback and opinions of my Pagoda brothers (and sisters)!
