I would like to start a directory of 2005 spyder stick shift cars. Why? Because they are low production and I think it would be nice to see how many I can identify out of the 780 cars sold in the US and estimated 500 remaining cars. So I need city state, vin number, mileage. Also nice to have your purchase price and when you bought it.

I put in Qa offer on the blue on in Houston. We will see what happens.

With shipping it might be higher than I want go spend.

I might just go for the 2004 that in closer.

I saw in another thread that 2005 Spyders were just remaining 2004 inventory and there were no actual USA Spyders manuf in 2005. Is this true?

I need members to help me with this project. I have exhausted my resources and search ability. I think I did good for a few hours of work in 24 hours. I have a separate listing with notes that I will also be keeping. I did this with the 1970 Oldsmobile 442 w-30 convertible and 1971 442 w-30 convertible and my list became the item to verify cars 30 years later. I sold the car 5 years ago after 40 years of ownership but I am still one of the top people in the Oldsmobile muscle car world. Lee

Wow. That was at least ten cars, thanks. I cant be sure they are all stick cars though.

Most of them said they were manual but I know that don't mean much . I think you may need to come up with a way to organize them also .

 

[leepear]

I am over 25 Cars already. When I get a chance I will organize pictures. This is moving toward 10% of the cars built in 2005. I would suggest that one of the 2004 fans do a similar thing with the 2004 models. They built many more and it will be a bigger challenge. I plan to only focus on the 2005 which to me are the blue chip years for a collector. Colors have been interesting will only a few yellow, white, gray and mica blue. Black are the most popular with silver next.

No reds?

 

[leepear]

Four reds on the list, one of them a total wreck car. Until yesterday they looked like a hard to find color but now are showing up on the list. Only one green.

I have a 2005 MR2 121120 miles in NJ. It was a Texas car. It only sees rain and snow from the garage window. LoL. Any idea on the value for this type of 2005?

 

[leepear]

I am not yet an expert but will be soon. I have now seen many sales and asking prices. Accident history? Limited slip differential? Please post your vin so I can list your car if it is a stick. I just bought a red creampuff with similar miles with a hardtop, limited slip, and spoiler and very good maintenance along with all the original owners documents for $8700. Hardtop $2500 item. Some of the low mileage better color cars are in the $11k to $13k depending on mileage mostly under 70k miles.

Ill get the VIN. I put her away for the fall/winter. No accidents It does have LSD. This car was always garaged and well maintained. I bought it from member on here. His name was Bruce I believe.
