Hard to say. I was never a big fan of them. I think the paint is goofy and they are really hard to take care of.

'eh, To each their own. I personally think that the Mystic is the best flip-color ever made. As far as maintaining the paint.. No prob.

How much are they asking...

And yes, they are a PITA to take care of. Touch up paint is NOT cheap for those and has a VERY short shelf life. The color also shows all flaws very easily.

$12k obo.

Pull repaint is about $1300 or so if needed.

I would prob. offer about $8,000 and see what he says.

I wouldn't pay more than 9k for it. Sorry... too many owners. Can't be sure it's 100% even if I trust you.

To paint a car in Macco maybe but not a good paint job for 1300.

I hope you're kidding about that price...

That paint is NOT cheap. You are NOT paying $1300 for a repaint with Mystic.

never was a big fan of that color. Then again I've never actually seen one in person, but from pictures they don't really impress me

I've got a buddy with a...I think its an 04 Mystic, had a repaint, hit a couple grand on it.

As for being able to take care of it well, its not difficult, but its not really easy either.

Most I'd pay for it is maybe 9, too many different owners like others said, for all you know, something could be rigged up just to last a month or so and then die.

Paint + prep materials for a flip flop color would cost you 1300 itself. thats before any labor.

LOL! Funny.. I know a couple of guys that have had it done, factory repaint for between $13-1600. The biggest problem with the mystics from that year was the clearcoat.

Doesn't really matter though, I think Im going to look for a 99-04 2V or a Mach if I can swing it.
