At the prices Premier charges it better be new! I made the mistake of calling for a price from them. Sticker shock plus.

The 2017 label is just silly, but a first class renovation is labor intensive. When I had my interior redone, I called Airmod in Cincinnati for a guesstimate and they told me to plan on at least $30K for my V35B. That involved taking the interior pretty much down to bare metal and making every component as new as possible. I think there is a small market for people who don't mind paying high prices for planes that have been painstakingly restored. Carolina Aviation appears to think this is the case with one of their brokered V35Bs , though I can't see that this one makes any sense at all: https://www.controller.com/listings/air ... 5b-bonanza
