not sure if you guys saw this, looks like Gary is sending the super rare endurance edition to Sotheby's!

LMFAO!!! Interesting that he claimed it was the only manual gearbox in N. America, but the auction listing says 1 of 3. And RM Sotheby's estimate of $130-$160K still seems high to me, but is probably what they settled on with "Crazy Gary."
No reserve......I think Gary's in for a rude awakening....lol

That poor guy in the back with the boom mic must be questioning all of his life's decisions.

Gary is crazy. This car has low miles. Gary always said like 6_ _ something. Always threatening to drive it if nobody bought it. LOL

I guess the stickers perhaps preventing a few rock chips on the paint suffices as "endurance" now.

EDIT: Wow. After looking at the pics, didn't know "Endurance Edition" is actually a real thing. What does it have (other than stickers) that earn it the title of "Endurance?"
Gary certainly isn't putting that to task. Kind of funny irony that a car marked up due to being "Endurance" has yet to be driven.

LOL ....
Endurance Edition is just a sticker package and specific configuration that isn't unique. Your typical Porsche marketing. Just another way to sell a 911. A joke really ..

^^^ Hot if you happen to want a Viper Green Targa 4S manual with powerkit...
But honestly I just don't get owners that buy cars like this, clearly specced to a highly unusual and very expensive combo of options (no way this is a dealer ordered car), then only put 3K miles on it and dump it back on the dealer with $48K or so of loss...
Now if this was a paint-to-sample C4S coupe with powerkit, sport exhaust, sport chrono, 18 way sport seats, and tons of extra leather perhaps in a more appealing PTS color like Voodoo Blue, it would be very hot IMHO.

If you want a loud green car, you have to really spec it out aggressively to compliment the color. Black wheels, black targa top, etc. Makes a world of difference and will make that color pop as it should. With all that silver, it manages to make an aggressive color look confused as it mixes with a "Sunday cruiser retiree" vibe.
