Tune into 4:10 mark. These guys passed on them. Now they are at Auto Kennell and Original Rare. Asking all the money and some...

Original Rare also had a cool Silver on factory plaid cloth sport seats example but it must of sold. The rest of the batch you linked aren't very exciting for the money they are asking IMO. Wonder if they would be a bitch to register in CA?

It is. It's a 10k job all said and done.

Curious: factory radio delete still comes with door speakers?
Are there speakers in the door cards, or just speaker grill covers?

The ad states "real RS wheels", but the pictures show normal cup wheels, not the magnesium RS ones. Rest of the car looks pretty good, I guess more of an RS Touring clone as it retains AC, P/W, central locking and P/S. Still has US-spec rear bumper center not the RS piece. Nice but not $140k nice IMO.

I saw this car at a bodyshop, although I don't know the exact work it was having done about 18 months ago...the ad also states bumpers were repainted so it may have benign as just that...

Agreed however when you take in to consideration the ROW Slate Gray Japan market with no sunroof @ ~45k miles that was on the market about 1-2 months prior to these, and that particular one started the asking at $78k and couldn't find a buyer for almost a week, then it's fairly easy to conclude that at their current asking these other four are clearly listed at the "hope to find a sucker that just has to have it" price point.
