I don't have the free cash at the moment or this would be very tempting indeed.
If I have not had such an abysmal year financially, I would jump on it too.

No.

'BEST' was dripping with sarcasm...

Truth is, I'm just going by what you guys say - my firewall is acting up and I cannot get on the site...

Well the other side of the spectrum is they actually know the cars, which is worse IMO.

Case in point: I looked at a 6GT2 in Chantilly yesterday and the owner rushes right over to inform me they've taken it off the market "until further notice". Turns out they're just waiting to relist at $250K (from $150K).

BTW that one obviously didn't have the "tilt steering column"

THAT would be an impressive, and RARE, option to have...
