saw that you offered to sell your cage & carbon buckets to winner KSR. Have you given up on getting a car for the track?

Yea I guess so… I think I’ll just keep my .2 for canyons and use the forgeline/buckets/Dundon money toward a 718 GT4 I can abuse… they are starting to pop up unsold on lots. I also have an employee in Frankfurt trying to get me a GT4RS allocation through his friend… which is highly unlikely but I’ll know tomorrow.

Green .1 RS with 6k miles up for auction at Bonhams without reserve. PCCB and full leather with deviated green stitching. $156k original MSRP. Auction estimate is $180k-$220k, but I am thinking easily $300k+. Auction is online and goes from 10/21-10/25.

The seller should be slapped for the presentation.

Whoever specced this with red seat belts must have been smoking something very potent. Green car, yellow brakes, red belts. Reminds me of something.

Such a tough crowd to please, on one hand everyone posts 'These cars are meant to be driven, get out and drive!" and on the other hand everyone is offended when a vehicle shows signs of use lol

There's a difference between using a car, and selling a car that's expected to fetch $300k. No one is criticizing the driver for putting wear on the car. We're criticizing the the seller for not spending $300 and 5 minutes to fix a glaring defect on a premium auction.

It's all relative I guess... Signs of use is one thing, and argue it's something to be proud of, but when you are trying to sell a $200k+ car it probably shouldn't have bits dangling. That's just lazy.

Still makes it look like the car was not taken care of well. And the description is not awe inspiring either.

Plus, can easily replace it yourself. I have replaced the front lip on my cars previously and have had the job done in usually 10-15 minutes. Although the owner of the Green RS for sale on Bonhams did a number on that lip as the center extension piece is sagging, but no biggie.

I think we all just explained why BAT is kicking ***... they force their sellers to put some muscle into it before they will list.

Anyone here bidding on that black/orange RS on BaT? 250k with a couple of hrs to go. We might see a crazy number on this.
