I met the seller during the auction
images 96 - 106 were taken in my garage
seller went on a rant last day of sale and lost cred.

I wish i had known him / the car before bat.

Oh, I’m sure the seller’s stating the truth - but it’s not particularly relevant given the car was a dedicated track car prior. There’s nothing at all wrong with track cars, but the seller’s specifying his / her usage and staying silent on the car’s past life is an intentionally misleading statement designed to make the reader believe the car doesn’t have track history.

Maybe each island is different but when I’ve been to Kauai and Maui the cars there just have a ton of rust on them (even newer models), maybe the tropical environment just isn’t ideal for cars. Not that there was anything like that on this example but just makes me wonder

If there was some rust you know that Wob was going to get it polished out. How puts armorall underneath a car? I think it was stolen. The LED light retrofit shouldn't be a minus. No PCCB hurt.

Wob’s presentation is outstanding, no question. No hint of rust or anything like that - I’m just wondering if someone may not want a Hawaii based car given the environment.

LED lights definitely subjective, not for everyone

The front plate bracket may have hurt a little too. Most people aren't running front plates on these cars, even in states that require them, and white is a pain in the *** to match if you wanted to get it fixed.

On a creampuff, low miles car it's the little details that can have a big difference since they can drive away the collector types.

I agree but just curious, are you a proxy for a dealer? You bid on a lot and buy nothing....

You were not too far off on this one, what would you do if you bought it?

no, I’ve bought plenty of cars, but unsuccessful on BaT. I have a difficult time going the extra mile. I had a number I was comfortable paying on this gt3 and the bids surpassed it by $5k.
