Curious if anybody went to look at it from this forum. I was debating if I should drive out to Danville from SF, but decided against it considering it was heavily raining. Like everyone said, the seller is handling it extremely poorly that he's better off just cosigning it with a bigger dealer than the shenanigans he's pulling with this parking lot auction.
If anybody is curious, he replied to my text with "hey everybody, we're going to meet in the parking lot at.. xyz" Just a click and spam all messages type reply. Completely unprofessional handling the sale of a 100k+ car. Doesn't even address the potential buyers by their names
He probably had 200+ messages. Not going to say what's right or what isn't, but he put himself in a precarious position, as when you underprice your car by that much, there's really no good response that won't **** off the 199 people who don't end up getting it.

That car had a parking lot incident that was not insignificant. The last time we sold it, we disclosed it to the buyer. However, it went through at least one dealer since then and that information must have gotten omitted.
We've made the seller on BaT aware of it and sent them the repair receipts so that they can handle it with BaT and make the appropriate announcement, but giving you guys a heads up in case you were looking to bid.
**Don't be posting on the auction yet, let's let the seller get in front of it as they were genuinely unaware of the prior damage (and it wasn't on Carfax since it wasn't claimed on insurance).

13-13.5 mils seemed a smidge high on a couple of panels even with PPF. maybe this is why. The rest of it all measured 10.5-11ish mil and hard to tell from the pics but there appears to be some extra orange peel on the lower part of some panels also (pass side door and rocker). Either that or i'm seeing things. I don't think he measured in those areas though.
Arctic Silver .1 RS with 20k miles, PCCB, and full leather on BaT. The original graphics and accents were orange instead of the black ones on the car right now. Arctic Silver is the rarest color for the .1 RS. Doug pointed out a couple years ago this car had a miss shift early on in its life at <100 hours.

Doesn’t look like he’s planning to disclose it … lol.
Silver with black accents on the .1rs is so so nice. I passed on one a few years ago with 7k miles and wish I didn’t.
Was this car up on Pcarmarket a few years ago? Factory black accents and graphics. The pre pandemic prices are unreal in hindsight. Could find a nice .1 RS for <$150k. This car is probably worth about double nowadays. The market was in a slump for these from 2018 through the first half of 2020.
