Too many to list and it is buried in this thread somewhere if you look up the VIN in here. A friend of someone here bought this car and it had a lot of issues. Didn’t say exactly what, but it got to the point where they ended up returning the car to the dealer and getting refunded.

I did a quick check and I didn’t find anything that details the issues. I just saw something that said it may have an accident history but nothing further. It would be nice to know exactly what the problems are so people can decide. Problems are subjective to people. For some, paintwork is not big deal and to others the sky is falling.

I actually think Ilko (thread starter) is the one who knows the details

Looks like a minor accident per the carfax. Not sure what else but that usually eliminates a lot of buyers.

IMO the blacked out taillights would need to go. Price seems good and this one probably won’t last too long.

Last I heard and according to this post, $400k. I think a RL member owned that one.

The car you are referring to is currently at GRP. The one Doug has belonged to @Mr. Adair previously.
