For some reason, I think this car was a rental or loaner car...

No...Do a search on over revs. Thats 300 ignitions. Im not sure what this engine fires at... basically a few seconds. 300 isnt to bad..PPI would be nice. I would move on...combo of a bad dealer and a year on the lot at a discount price. Take your time...dont rush into anything. Took me about 6 months to find mine.

300 level 1's is nothing. I think it's roughly 400 per second when you bounce off the rev limiter. From this perspective, the car was treated well.

Cheers,

Vegas is not a place for a GT3 to be.
Besides, a lot of people in Vegas are hurting from housing bust.

If PPI is good and the price is low; why not.

Scott did you buy it? I emailed them an offer of $60K on Saturday and they said it was under contract, but the funds had not been wired yet. If they still have it next Sunday I will take a look. Lane

wasn't me. Hopefully it will fall through so you can have a look. I'm just very wary of a car a dealer has had for nearly a year and has had it advertised at a very good price...

If it checks out, buy it, you won't reget it!

II went by and looked the car over on Thursday. I do have to say it was cleaner than I expected. The only wear I could fine was on the drivers floor mat. Paint looks real good and appears all original. It has 3m film on the nose which has a few nicks, but not much. It is very puzzling that the car is still there. If you want a red one it is getting to be a bargain price. Lane

I'll be in Vegas Tues-Fri this week. I'll go check it out. I'll even bring my Durametics (will be fun to see the sales guys faces) and download the ECU data and post...
