bringatrailerIn fairness to our sellers and bidders, we have extended this auction one hour to account for the temporary spike in server load we experienced after the 240Z auction this morning. We will continue to monitor all of our auctions and our server load closely, and expect nothing but smooth sailing ahead.

BaT"

 

Unless there was a mistake in bidding, we are at $59,500 with 45 mins to go. Assuming there was not an error in the bid we already have a winner.

 

The BaT servers appear to have melted from the 240Z auction, and I can't sign in. Not sure I trust the number on our subject car yet, and if correct, something really weird is happening today!

 

Yup, bid was retracted. Back to $29k

 

Damn, that 240Z went for $310k. Wow.

 

$30,000 w/30 minutes remaining

 

HAHAHa----> I thought 436 over revs in range 5 refers to how many times the range was hit?

From the website link:
Until a few years ago ignitions recorded in ranges 3 and 4 were considered by the Manufacturer to be safe with such vehicles still eligible for Porsche Extended warranty. Ignitions recorded in Ranges 5 and 6 would not be considered for warranty with existing policies invalidated at the point of over rev. Current Porsche warranty procedure ( as of 2018) considers activity in ranges 3 and 4 to be potentially problematic with compression tests and / or oil checks deemed necessary irrespective of whether or not incursions occurred several hundred operating hours prior to the check. However, in a pragmatic relaxation of previous protocol vehicles with activity in ranges 5 and 6 will be considered for extended warranty provided the over rev activity occurred more than 200 operating hours ago. The warranty provision is at the discretion of the importer and subject to the aforementioned compression/oil checks.

 

When the seller creates his BAT Auction Movie he can use the Auction Site meltdown in a melodramatic way increasing his chances for an Oscar.

 

Did not expect this non-S vert to go as high as $31K in late January; I guess it's never cold in California..

PS: what, my browser now shows the bid down to $30K?

 

$31K w/6 minutes remaining - if there is heavy bidding at very end of auction they will extend the end-time

 

$32,500 and they increased the end-time!
