A tree fell on the roof of this .1, but it looks isolated, no accidents per se (looks like towing ripped off the splitter.)
If you really wanted one of these to keep forever it might be a good candidate?

I would recommend a top notch body shop with a Celette bench just to make sure everything is square. But a roof tie in, with the right body and paint guy, would be doable (lets not forget the glass guy 😁, thats how I pay for my toys, well commercial and residential)....my budget/estimate for that kinda of work would be 8-12K. So I'd have to pick the car up for less than 80K to pencil out....probaly can part it out for more...

Great time for a sunroof delete.

It doesn’t really matter. When I bought mine I also thought I overpaid. Todays it’s worth almost twice of what I paid for it. Paying the perfect price on any given day is irrelevant in the context of how these cars appreciate (or could depreciate).

If you're a long term buyer it doesn't matter what you pay today. And if it's a keeper, then it never matters what you paid!

There was one identical to it for sale from the same original collection as mine when I bought mine from Canepa but I can't remember the number plate.
Mine also has the same signatures.

I'm very very happy with the car and purchase. So Stoked. Funny, this is my first time driving any GT car. People wiser than me, told me, and who know me, said that I should only buy a GT car. Well, they were right.
It's the raw, feely, noise, darty, sporty, grabby kinda car I love to drive. When I first drove her, I knew before the driveway ended, the GT car is special. My kinda special.
Was it Bogy that said "this is gonna be the start of a beautiful friendship" or something along those lines.....
Looking forward to learning more about the car as I grow with it.

Someone craftier than I once said, "luck is when preparation meets opportunity". Part luck, part timing, all "YEP, this one!!"
