It looks pretty nice in the ad and if they are asking $800 you may be able to take him down a lot due to the uncertainty of him running it into the red.
From the look of it it deserves to be saved.
I like the tan better than the gray, but I guess that just comes down to personal preference.
i tried to get him to come down to $500 he said in a month or 2 if it doesn't sell he might go that low.
