congrats. There certainly were a lot of us watching that auction.

Let us know how she fairs once you shake things out. Hopefully this was well bought!

Also looks like you've added this Pastell Orange to another GT car in RS Green? going for all the skittle colors?

Please keep us posted on that car. Looks like you got a great car for $20-30k below what it should have gone for.

Congrats on purchase. The owner who just sold that car was neighbors with my wife's parents.

Good find Eduardo and with you on its interior. Plastic dash, plastic console, no stitching: not special enough. Shame.

Congratulations! The best comment in the whole auction thread was the person who asked if he was sure his sponsors were ok with him selling the car.

92k + ~4600 buyer fees. BaT covered the amount it was under the reserve for the seller.

Sakes alive. I sat in this car @ Niello (7/22/12)! I was waffling on it with my SA (Pat in the background). Ended up going another route...kicking myself ever since!
