IMHO, which should be very obvious to all, BaT is the extreme recreation of the "used car lot" as we knew/know it; open to ALL. The "cores" remain; rarity, condition, mileage, make, model, etc.. After that, using enough "digital influence", anyone can manipulate (especially with a reserve set) transaction prices. BaT is not reality unless you list on BaT AND bring support. I personally thought that particular Turbo, with it's open questions, oversold.

.....well said!....
I know many guys who sell on bat and they are always asking me and friends to bid and take it up to right below the reserve. I tell them, kiss my ***.
like I said in another post I know of a old 911 that was totaled then repaired and painted and it was kept secret.
The car was then sold on bat with no mention of the accident. Just that the car had new paint.

Forged masterworks sell thru the finest most trusted auction houses in Montecarlo
A scam is a scam whether it’s Autotrader or Sotheby’s
Buyer beware
And BaT remains a tremendous resource. Just imagine the poor sucker who would have bought that “X50” at a Porsche dealer without the peanut gallery to to clue him in?!?
You think a used car manager at Porsche is gonna peel off that golden goose fake X50 option sticker??
You’re deluded if you think so
BaT save the Buyer $30K on that car. Admit it
And I personally watched a franchise list and sell a 2005 Turbo as an “S” simply because dupes don’t know Porsche still made the standard Turbo in ‘05. Criminal!

The only thing worse than paying a big premium for an X50 car is paying a big premium for a car marketed as an X50 car that really isn't....
I can almost guarantee buyer remorse once the owner of that latest BaT car starts going through it. I wouldn't of given 55K for that car, WAY to many red flags...

The bidding makes it worthy of this thread.

If it wasn't for the scrotch harness that would be a total sleeper of a car. Imagine the party tricks you could do. Could give even those execrable, detestable Teslas a run for their money from a roll, I'm sure.

Anyone know anything about this one? Seems really nice but unknown dealer to me. Going to try to see it next week.
