That's the epitome of a phenomenal deal if the car isnt due any major repairs. He could have gotten at least 15k more (.2 AND an S, with relatively low miles)
he didn't know what he had, was in a crazy hurry to get cash or didn't care about the money. Congrats!

Really encourage the OP to start a thread on this one. Fascinating.

It's priced competitively for the spec, year and miles. I personally don't love the wheels on there, but that's subjective.

It's a good deal if the PPI comes back clean. The way the markets been, they could charge more depending on climate (warm weather) so I'd say go for it,
if you like the car.

Some red flags: VIN doesn't match car (but it's close), doesn't show license plate, doesn't actually show VIN and mileage, dealership is out of business.

This is a "Dealer takeover" scam. The ad is from this company Universal Auto and they went out of business. Russians made a website with the same address and though Google reports they are closed people will fall for it and think they are one.

Here's the website: Scam website

I wanted to write a review on Google to warn people. I already did it on Yelp Yelp review But because Google has them closed you cannot post a review. How can I get them a Google listing?

Thinking of buying this car. Hoping to get them to 85k. Any thoughts on this one? I know the accident is a negative but it does look clean and miles are low. Let me know. Thanks guys!

the color combo is insane (but not in a good way) which is my guess as to why it has sat for awhile. Aside from that I think $85k would be a decent deal.

The red is OK but the steering wheel center bugs me a little. I like the contrasting stitching. It's got tons of carbon fiber inside and I have to warn you be careful it warps and cracks. I could not tell but if the center console tunnel is carbon don't lean over on it. And don't allow it to get crazy hot inside. Make sure you have the best window tint that reflects heat and use a sunscreen up front. I had so much trouble with mine.

Outside of that it's bad-***.

that dealer is about 10 minutes from me in Tampa, glad to go do a Rennfax for you before a PPI. I kind of want to see it in person anyway.
