2005 TTS, 6 speed, coupe, low miles. No reserve and less than hour left. Will be interesting to see what it goes for, low $70's?

I had not seen an embossed center storage compartment lid like that before...

Seems like a pretty decent buy given the rarity and the apparent condition. Makes a lot of the X50 asking prices look ambitious.

Yeah, that's a nice one.

I'm not familiar with the Ebay process, when someone buys a car through Ebay, is any inspection or PPI allowed as a condition for final sale, or is it a matter of having to bid and hope there's nothing major?

I have seen this seen dealt with various ways.

I think the general consensus is that you do one before the auction ends.

However, I have seen people that stand behind their car, and state that you can do a PPI after the auction closes.

Something is up with this car, or perhaps the seller. That was its second time listed on eBay, first time the hammer fell at $64,400. And he's also running an ad on CL asking $98,900.

That is interesting. It shows to still be for sale at $98k even on their carsfromusa website but sold with no reserve on ebay for much less.

I was just at Auto Assets in Ohio today getting service done, and they have a yellow 2001 turbo with only 13 k miles on it- it looked new. Ask is 55 k. A lovely car.

This car has been for sale on and off for several months. It is located in NYC and the seller is a small dealer/flipper. I spoke to the seller about it back in September when looking at the the silver 2003 x50 996tt with super low miles (4,xxx mi) he had for sale at the time that was posted in this thread. He had just acquired the car and wanted 80k+ for it back then. He had no service records for the car. Seems to have fallen a bit short on the price of the last ebay sale and had several sales that failed to close for some reason or another.

Corso

I would speculate the winning bids on the eBay listings were ghost bids. Obviously mid-$60s is a long way off from $98k, or even $80k. My guess is the car is still available.

What service records would you expect on a 4k mile car?

Fraudulent Bidding on eBay?!! I'm shocked!
