its my experience that I buy seller.
100+ cars I bought and I have never done one ppi. never bought a bad car finger crossed.

this is a run of the mill std color car. nothing. really to show.

most my cars are sold wothout pictures and when I do send pic it provided same result as no pic.

so I got lazy.

for a special car and discerning buyer they should fly out to see it and we can get some real food and talk cars. maybe even go on a good bike ride.

but everyone is different. once this goes to a dealer i’m sure they will put up many pictures.

Not new.

But probably one of the asinine things to ask for - photos of a car being bought.

It makes sense with buying the seller; it just comes off as "don't ask", and if you need to ask, don't bother.

Long bike rides in the country side solve all worldly problems, that Ill stand behind all day long.

Wow how can no one want a Miami Blue GT3t. If I didn't have my signal green gt3 coming. I would be all over this. I had even bought the mini model of it before getting a pts for mine. Mooty I am sure if you added a huge markup like a dealer. You would have calls all over e place for the car!

will be in San Fran next week. Wonder how many gt3 I will actually spot in the wild.
