I haven’t driven a 675LT yet. I think I’ll fall in love with one. Any good ideas on how to find out when a good one pops up on the market? I’m still bummed that I missed that FL 1-owner roof scoop car!

A near-full tank of gas would add about 90 lbs.
I will weigh my 765LT and report back to share additional data points.

The good 675LT’s are drying up see below. Not as fast as a 720S, but for me it’s raw like a GT3RS but lighter.

That orange one in VA has a nice spec. Of course, I'm bias on the color though (Used to own the sister car)

Contact a really good high end dealer like Merit Partners, tell them what you want.. they know many of the off-market deals as well as deals which will be coming on market. You pay them a reasonable amount of money and it's totally worth it.
