Default 300RWHP 951 on ebay (funny)

HERE

Very nice looking car but I doubt its putting down 300RWHP. WTF is the "Color: Red with Black Cloth interior"?

Looks like it was a DE car or Track car almost.

It IS pretty nice looking overall, but on principle I just cannot bid from anyone that puts "L@@K" in their header. Sorry, just a thing. . .

Mmmm, have you guys seen the other marroon colored 'race' 951 on ebay with the GT racing splitter that is silver and the stripped interior? That one looks like it has non turbo front fenders on it?!?!?! That scares me. Its already at like 16k too.

I bet the light bar gives it an extra 70 hp.

What the heck was that in front of the dash? A flashlight?

I liked how he insists on making his phone number big and visible -- but no one can call 'cause there's no area code.

It has been repainted, probably a silber rosa car with M030, but the rear rotors are the wrong kind.

It's an 89, so it isn't a silberossa car. From the underhood pctures it looks like a respray of a linen car. Why am I the only one who likes this colour?

Those 18" hollow spoke turbo twist wheels are worth a little bit. The add says 300 hp, NOT 300 rwhp. 300 hp at the crank is very believable with just an LBE on a K26-8 car. I have to agree, though, that calling a burgundy interior with black cloth Corbeau seats a "black cloth interior" is a bit odd.

Bleeding would be impossbile, unless they removed the caliper, held it the right way up and let it clamp on the rotor or something...
