    Careful with the rear fitment as that wheel/tire setup can start to rub and remove paint from the rear inner fender lip. A friend had PSS10s with stockish camber and a 275/30 PSS on a 10 ET27 wheel and it rubbed the paint in that area. The tire sidewall did not show any indication of heavy rubbing.

    I can’t see why you’d be in a hurry to sell it in that spec… I just don’t see that going lower from here… drive it for a while to let the herd thin… you see what’s happening to well kept E36M right now, almost none of which are coming in that spec or condition… 2-5 years I think rewards your patience.

    Yup, with a lot of exposure probably could have fetched up to low 40s, maybe 45 at best depending on the details but they've come down to earth and it cost you 10-15k waiting a year or so to list.

    My buddy was saying you can even get a Model S plaid without the stupid steering wheel for only $90k now or some such.

    That's not the point. Even if it is worth $30 or $32k or $35k, it could have fetched $10k+ more a year to 2 years ago. The ship has sailed. Best to wait for the next craze is my advice.

    I would think a slicktop with cloth and 6MT, with 60K miles is worth 30K all day.

    Market has definitely softened but I think it goes above $30K all day long.

    2005 Mystic Blue slicktop on Impuls cloth with manual seats.
    One owner before me, no accidents, original paint, ~60k miles.
    Just performed full VANOS, valve adjustment, rod bearings, SMG -> 6MT with new cluch and flywheel, RACP reinforcement and much more.

    Any input on what would be a fair market value for it?

    $35-39K feels about right.

I see no benefit to a moonroof/sunroof, personally. Only drawbacks (less headroom, more weight, more complexity/cost/failure, another possible way for UV to damage interior.
    Slicktop just looks hard af which is why I specifically ordered mine without one.

    Sunroof is cool if you're cruising but I never use them in other cars.
