It's a 1996 toyota celica gt convertible, with all the power options, new rims, new top, and its got 133k miles and its BLACK ON BLACK LEATHER

The only bad thing is, the headlight looks like its got water in it?, and the seller tells me that someone backed up into the front part of the bumber and left a medium sized dent.

would $2500 be a good price for this? or should it be lower

That's pretty cheap compare to some in our area.

Convertibles can be really, really expensive to re-roof. Check the roof very carefully. Make sure everything is straight and moving well, look for water marks, etc. And remember, a new roof will have to be custom made and the verts were so rare you'll never find a used roof anywhere.

But, if it's in great shape, you'll have a nearly unique car.
