I think it looks pretty good, and not a bad price.

With Zero bids, I'm guessing he'll be keeping it.

Wow. I think the car is spectacular, but then I really like unusual colors. It seems to be bone stock, which is good, but it really needs to be lowered. The price seems reasonable. Most folks put their cars on eBay for the exposure, and sell them off of eBay.

Very cool color. Low mileage too. Probably needs the ride height (and awd) for those Nebraska winter back roads...

Maybe "A brush with a pole", is seller-speak for "wrapped around a lamppost".

don't hate it but it's a tough one.
I think most who aspire to own a turbo and can finally get it, are going to lean more toward the reds, yellow, black, the blues, the whites and the silvers.

I love the color. The blues and the greens look wonderful on these cars, but it does make them harder to sell.

Scott Mellor drove 700 miles (round trip) to finally get a decent avatar. Shep... when are YOU coming up here?

Nice photo Steve! I'm going to the Rennsport reunion in October, will you be there?

Scott,

I really want to go, but haven't bought my tickets yet. Are you committed? Which days are you going?

Do you have a handy link I can use.... I should really sign up now.
