Default C2S bargain or not?

Tim Holt has this car for sale at $125K.

I wonder what the backstory is?

1. priced under-market for the mileage
2. has had a lot of work done to it for 58K miles
3. Holt usually prices his cars quite high $
4. Holt doesn't buy junk

Says "SOLD" so someone thought it was a bargain and bought it.

Is iit as nice as it looked? I emailed about it while you were working the deal. My wife told me not to wait. She’s smart. Just out of curiosity, did you pay full ask, if you don’t mind telling.

I had been inquiring about the car for about a week, going back and forth with Tim. I purchased the car sight unseen so I can’t vouch for the condition first-hand, but I’m trusting Tim on his description of the car, his strong filter, and his reputation.

I promise to do a write up on it soon and will share more

The red C2 993 has my interest. It sure sounds nice, but 100k for a narrow body seems high. Of course, everything seems expensive now.
