On that pumpkin if they were taking it back to stock why did they remove the decals?

I looked it up and I think they paid under $90k for it. It may be that it's fine, but no mater what it salvage title so $179k may be a bit much. What's the typical discount on a salvage car? 30%? Google it and you can see the auction pix pretty easy.

My guess is paint correction, then Re-decal? best ROI is my guess....

Is this the one that the guy withheld the deposit after the buyer found out about some previously undisclosed accident?

Price seems high for a 40k mile car with accident damage including airbag deployment.

I am a dealer and found the car at Manheim. It has OEM buckets in it yet and appears to have a CEL. They gave it a 5.0 out of 5.0 condition report. Something I rarely ever see. VIN: WP0AC299X7S793248
It runs through Manheim Nashville on 8/28

Interesting, from the HBI videos I can see they say this car has a CUP engine in it and some were referencing that its a 4.0+ engine. Also other videos show it has a CAE massive shifter. Are there any other details or photos of the interior posted on Mannheim?

They gave it a 5.0 because it’s one of Chad’s.

I actually ended up buying that controversial car...mia culpe. Feel free to flame me...I had a hard time with the morals but at the end of the day, the guy had to come way down in price to make the deal, so I felt that made it sort of alright. I spend a lot of time in Vancouver (in-laws are there) and figured I'd lay eyes on the car with no intention of buying it since I'd decided a .1 gt3 was what I wanted but had never even sat in one; went to see the car and it was beautiful. The guy actually seemed like a decent human being and he was super helpful and transparent with the sale and helped me get everything together so that I could drive it across the border/import it properly. I don't agree with him withholding the previous buyer's deposit and it's certainly not what I would have done, but I didn't feel like the car deserved to be punished and get sold to a dealer, etc. There was some deferred maintenance and some stuff I need to get right, but it's nice to finally be a 997 GT3 owner
. Hopefully you all will still have me lol

I know folks in Nashville if anyone is interested. I can try to get someone to have a look before auction.
