Yea the car looks fine... prob needs a little love. However finding, OE wheels, wing and seats will cost someone $25k I'm guessing... the rest looks easy to reverse.

Love the aggressive revs 90 seconds after a cold start 🤦🏽‍♂️

Oil pressure looks to be very low at idle. Temp looks a bit on the high side. granted he's not putting around town but just food for discussion.

Also, if anyone needs eyes on it, Im heading down to that neck of the woods today and tomorrow to visit pops so if anyone wants a set of eyes on it.... dm me.

It's got a Cobb tune and it passed smog in CA. That's a good sign for anyone else tuned in California.

This is just my gut speaking here, but I agree with @RAudi Driver that .5 bar at hot idle seems low. I've had 3 mezger gt cars (all higher mileage and one with a crap ton of hard track miles) and never once seen a hot idle that low. Always between 1-2 if really hot. Otherwise a bit higher. With that said, it could be the sensor...the pressure sensors in these cars are known for being a little bit wonky and unreliable.

Right? It's worth getting a leak down and compression test before someone lunges in.

I read from the seller response that the tune was set back to factory for smog.

too late now for the bidders I’m guessing… best deal is going to be for someone that wants to actually drive it while they wait out the next 3 years for the used OE replacement parts to hit Rennlist . Otherwise replacement on two fenders, wheels, a bumper and buckets is like $30-35k prob

id also be asking about pic 156 as it looks like there is almost paint rubbing next to the thermal sticker… either way if it stays this low I’ll prob toss a bid in there, I have no issues putting lipstick on this pig

I would take those wheels and never change them. E88's are like stock wheels from another mother.

The missing paint above the Thermal sticker looks like the seat belt buckle got caught up in a closing door.

Why two fenders?

My car oil pressure is 2.5 bar hot at idle
