Yea well by that thinking I should have bought 7-8 years ago when I was looking at cars with 30-40k miles in the 25-30 thousand dollar range.
But seriously I was buying this new house 2 years ago and just didn't have the money to get a really nice one. What turned me off was I looked at three cars and they were all beat up and worn out and the owners thought they were sitting on piles of gold and wouldn't come down to a "reasonable" price. Glad I didn't buy one of those now though.

Nice if you were formerly named Prince. Some of these 964 colors people go crazy for because of their rarity are hideous. I say they are rare because most people think the color is vomit inducing.
Give me the stock colors any day of the week.

Ah ok so I guess I didn't put 2 and 2 together. Guess this is the silver car. I had been looking at it online for a couple weeks.
Someone better hurry up and get it for $58k before 2 drunk dudes at mecum get in a bidding battle and it sells for $80k!!

Looks like someone spent some time detailing this car after the Hemings ad which shows the paint as being very rough shape. The Real Muscle listing shows to be a far cleaner condition but still the paint is what I would consider rough.

Something seems off about this car I can't quite put my finger on. Also don't people proof read their for sale ads? It isn't a forum.

None of the pictures provide enough resolution to make a good assessment and from what I have read Real Muscle Car doesn’t have a good reputation. The only immediate thing that stood out to me was the missing sticker on the hood and some trim missing in the frunk area, makes me wonder if something happened up front at some point in the past.

Anthony is right, the paint is rough especially on the front bumper, hood, and rear deck/spoiler. You can see that on the Hemings ad but even more so by looking at the full screen images on the Mecum site. Also, the silver on the hood appears to be off compared to the fenders and it sits a little higher on the right side compared to the left.

There is enough resolution to show the large number and size of the rock chips on the hood, The paint that is burned through along the back side of the roof. The Hemings site clearly shows marks along the back edge above the engine lid and a number of what appear to be marks on the rear wing. There is some damage to the bumper front left appearing on both sites as well and lots of what appear to be marks. My first thoughts after seeing the burn marks is thin paint. If paint isn't an issue why hasn't this car sold already? They do show the option sticker on Muscle car and it appears to have black mold on it.There also appear to be stickers normally not seen or in unusual locations in the engine compartment. My guess is this car was given the lipstick treatment but only first hand inspection will tell for sure.
