I'd like to see this break 100k.

Am I being optimistic?

That reminds me... I need to buy lottery tickets!

It certainly is one beautiful build. While I agree with Pete on the PCCB's, I think I would like the 'grippiness' of Alcantara on my posterior in corners (though I would also think that the wheel might get a little crusty from palm sweat?). Definitely a unicorn and I'm guessing will bring a nice number well into 6 figures.

Not at all, Quix. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes in under $110K, just due to the condition/mileage/PTS scheme.

On the .1 cars it's part of the x51 package.

Dan the man.....looks like you inspired a winner!! Whatcha think Tim?

I have no idea about pricing and values at all. How much would a same color 2010 Cab bring?! Original owner. Full Leather. Rear end accident in 2011..no issues since. Full service records at the dealer mostly. 70K miles.

Just curious......not selling. Thanks.

My GTS Cab has a similar gap width. Wonder if they changed the spec at some point?

Wow what a build. Hopefully this one sells. The recent 4k mile white one didn't sell at $90k.

Good eyes.
Also the gap between G and T is too much. A possibility is the owner removed it for looks and put it back.

hmm, thats very strange. you could be right.

the dead giveaway that the spacing is off is by comparing to the decal on the lower doors. it looks proper on the doors, but glaringly loose on the rear decklid.

All good. I thought my GTS-4 was missing something for a second and had to search it just to confirm why I didn't have one either.

Wow, that's almost the perfect build spec! It'll definitely end at over 100K.

Wow, absolutely gorgeous and major props to the owner for keeping this gem looking brand new and to the photographer as well. That is going to make someone very happy and proud to have such a unique and pristine ride.
