If this sells anywhere near this price ..... it is a steal! I would think $135 is more in range based on all the details.
Hi all!
I can't thank you all enough for your comments and interest in this beautiful car. I would also like to let everyone know that we absolutely stand by the quality of the car. Everything is in perfect order. If any of you were at Amelia Island this past March you may have seen me driving it. It was on the field at Werks Reunion and Festivals of Speed!

@Piderman yes, included at no additional cost!
Just to confirm, the original seats are included at no additional cost with the car in addition to the racing seats?
Bid in the amount of $92,500

@@mainstream You can disagree, I am just talking my personal threshold. Not claiming that's what the market is or should be. Other people have a higher tolerance than I do for storied cars.
@switchcars I will agree to disagree on that, a 4k RS in this color would be 160-180 with no stories with a clean DME. I think anything under 130 is stealing but just my 2 cents
I think the bidding has past my threshold of trying to steal a story car....but if the current seller has access to the chickadee "GT3 RS" plates that were on the car, I would like to buy those.

@switchcars yes we have the original seats
Do you have the original seats?
Bid in the amount of $85,000
@robbbonanno You are correct, the damage occurred on track. Carfax is less than perfect in reporting on all incidents.
We have all receipts for repairs, and I can work on getting them uploaded Tuesday!
The oil coolers were replaced, and the chassis is 100%
wow- that's a major incident.... not just "some damage" to the front. assuming this was on track damage which is why it did not make the carfax as it would have totaled the car. Do you have cross measurements for the chassis? Receipts? knowledge of which shop performed the repairs? I assume the oil coolers were destroyed too? Any inspection on the motor to see if shrapnel made it back to the engine and did damage when it was not turned off in time?
Has the coolant line upgrade been performed on this?
@nxTTT2020 Some insight on the crash, both front fenders were changed, as well as front bumper, hood, and front tub. The repairs are beyond incredible. I can post some photos from the underside of the car. Without knowing about the accident, it is impossible to tell!
Hi. Any additional details from the seller regarding what was replaced from the accident and as to the quality of work.
Bid in the amount of $20,000
Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you all know I am here to answer any questions about this beautiful car. This is a trackday dream come true, that also happens to look like a show concourse winner too!
