This is a Launch Edition with buckets. I'm not sure how them not posting a carfax could be interpreted as a red flag. They didn't post one, that doesn't mean there is a problem. You can buy a carfax for it if you'd like.

I figured that was the same car. He had it down to 59,500 with no takers

I don’t think it’s worth much more than that. Buckets don’t really add a premium on these cars, even though one could pull them out and sell them. Nice build though!

It also looks as if there is significant wear by the inside handle on the passenger-side door.

It also looks like there is a lot of wear on the b-column by the passenger seat belt holder.

Yeah! The engine most probably will blow up as a result. Run, don't walk! ( Jeez!)
I wonder what are the criteria for serious buyers. Such drivel!

I don't see any wear on the B-pillar, the car does have carbon b-pillar trims around the belt. This car is a great buy at this price, you just replace a few cracked carbon parts with factory black pieces and you end up with a loaded C4S with the remaining Carbon and PSE.

Yeah, I called the dealer. It is cracked. He said that it is common with the carbon fiber and that the previous owner had just replaced the carbon fiber center console for the same reason, to the tune of several thousand dollars.

Thanks,

Nobody has any price guidance on this car?

It does seem like a great car. It would seem weird to me to replace only cracked carbon fiber pieces with standard versions. Since I'm not a fan of the carbon fiber, I would consider replacing most/all the carbon fiber. I don't know what the market is for this stuff - maybe you could come away with a few extra $$s.

I'll agree its not worth much more than 60k.. but for me personally the buckets would add something as I really want to have a set in my car and the cost to get a set is considerable. If I'd found a GTS like I have with a set in it I'd have gladly paid another 4 or 5k for the car to save me having to get a set for $10k.

I believe there are much cheaper aftermarket versions for the carbon fiber trim

In my post I said "not sure if it's a red flag" because I'm literally not sure.

I don't buy used cars often but i did just purchase one in the past month and the large majority of dealers I worked with had one included with their online listing. they have become ubiquitous on for sale listings, so one could wonder why it's not present, especially on a high $ listing. Why not remove the question before it's asked?

Great specs! SPASM, Chrono, Buckets, MGM. Wheels are pastidiped. Apparently has a warranty.

Offered for sale just a couple of months ago on Rennlist. Odd how it got down to Florida. Owner must of sold it cheap to a flipper.
