Message	I love my t-tops. People always try to find the "rarer" variants and pretend they are more valuable/desirable. The same thing happens with the brown color. Even though its a less common color, I think its ugly and would never want a brown sports car. If it meets some specific need/desire for you...great. To answer your question: I would not pay anything.
