Looking to Buy a Speedster

Im looking for a silver, black or seal grey speedster. Recent builds...2007 and newer. I know its probably going to be hard to find since once you own one, its hard to give up, but Im just hoping I get lucky. I will probably end up building one very soon if I don't get any responses. I like the look of the flared panels as well. Would like to stay under $25K. Any info from any of you would be greatly appreciated.

Might as well throw my hat into the ring, you never know. Same as above but in the moon/off white color with tan int.

Am not opposed to coupes either...

You guys haven't been reading all the threads, have you?
some of the best cars this site has to offer are for sale right now. put your money where your mouth is...I mean fingers...

Ive looked at all the classifieds. If you read my post...again...most of them dont fit that description. I agree, there are alot of great cars out there, but Im wanting something on the newer side and in certain colors. So in answering your response...yes...I have been reading the threads

HEY,
TOO BAD U DONT WANT A BLUE COUPE

well im not exactly held to those three colors...just prferences. Any pics of the blue coupe??

I THINK he's kidding, but you never know with GERD. He just got his car recently. Look on the home page picture of this year's calendar. That's his car.

If your budget is 25K do yourself a favor and order a new one exactly as you want it. It shouldn't cost much more than 25K and you will have a blast designing it, and you have some warranty too. Just ask a lot of questions from knowledgeable customers regarding options, etc, so you spend your money right.

Age means very little with these tubs, it's how they were cared for, and most on the SOC baby the $hit out of their cars..
I think you should take a hard look at Leaders car..mucho bang for the buck, he even has the balls to put the price in his post...

No hard feelings Dale, but you seem to be skirting my question concerning price....We know how great the car is, but we gots to know what it will take...

Not sure the rationale to keep to a newer one - unless you like working the bugs out yourself. Or worring if the fiberglass will shrink and warp. With a few exceptions, older models have the bugs all worked out and usually have only minimal mileage on them so why tie yourself to a particular year restriction? Owner addons on older cars make them a better deal.

I agree with all that was said above about used cars being sorted. Since these are pretty much custom made in small volumes, there is little automation and you WILL have some issues that need sorting. Since I was new to these types of cars it took me a couple of years before I felt that the sorting issues were resolved. Some folks can solve them in weeks. That said, it's really fun to be able to spec out your car from the builder.

If you keep to your budget of $25k, Vintage may be the only manufacturer that can meet that price for a new car. Don't let that be a concern since many of the folks on this site think the world of Kirk and Mary Duncan and their product. Many many miles of fun motoring are hard to argue with. If you go used for that price, you can usually get a higher spec car, Vintage or otherwise.

Regardless, you WILL have fun.

LANE U THINK IM KIDDING
COME ON NOW
FOR THE RIGHT PRICE I WOULD SELL
IM ALLREADY DESIGNING A NEW ONE

Yeah, me too. Unfortunately I couldn't duplicate my car for anything close to what I have in it. I think my "personal financial advisor" would put the kibosh on spending more money, so I'll hang onto it for a while. It sure is fun to design "the next one" though, isn't it?

Hey David,

I may have to sell my 2006, off white, tan interior. Only 4,000 miles, absolutely Mint condition. Any interest?

It has white walls.

Snow White, say it ain't so...

Ok..fair enough. I can see newer isnt always better in this case. But Im thinking I would still like black, silver, or seal grey.

Let me know of any cars that fit this bill...

From Vince: "No hard feelings Dale, but you seem to be skirting my question concerning price....We know how great the car is, but we gots to know what it will take..."

Ummm, how about 48k? Celebrity owned, award winning, and on every magazine cover.

Instant fame for the new owner, worth an extra 5k, eh Vince?

I hope it ain't so Vince.....

Hi Jayson,

Sent you a note but thought I'd post here too. I have a recently restored Silver classic style originally built by Vintage Speedsters. It is listed on this site at: https://www.speedsterowners.com/forum/readmsg.asp?t=18533

Lots of pictures and info on www.trenteubanks.com

Shoot me an email if you are are interested or have questions.
Thanks,
Trent E.

You could do a LOT worse than Trent's car, from the looks of it.
Nice automobile there, Trent.

Jayson,
Trent's speedster is absolute top notch...what a car ! ~Alan

You guys flatter me. I just love these art projects on wheels. I'm don't paint well and I'm no sculptor so putting all the pieces of someone else's genius-inspired automotive art is about all I can hope for as my contribution to the art-world.

I've had a couple lookers on this one but nobody has gotten serious yet. If any body gets interested and would like to make an offer, I'll be glad to listen.

Somebody is missing out on relaxing evening drives in the cool Spring air.... and in danger of missing their local Summer cruise-ins in this little beauty. :)

Thanks Guys!
