1/5 Weissach 918 in Guard's Red
I'm not generally one for red cars, but wow, does Guards Red really make this 918 pop. And the fact that it's Weissach-equipped makes it even sexier. Check out more pics of this baby here. I'm curious as to how much it'll fetch, but a shame it's only been driven 525 miles! Hopefully the new owner will stretch its legs!

Expensive.
Even in auctions, 1.9 all in is 1.7-ish hammer price, and the price is not up there anymore, market is going soft. A McLaren P1 only fetches 1.5 lately, how can a 918 command 1.7?
If a 918 is 'pristine' like never, seldom driven, expect the car to spend about 6-8 weeks in the shop for updates and recalls. Most of that time will be waiting for parts from Germany, while the car is in pieces.
A regularly driven car should already have all the updates and campaigns done.

Considering the red 918 didn't sell at gooding recently, the cars are coming out of warranty and it's not PTS...whoopsy caught my drift. I have a customer with a white Weissach delivery mile car and the owner wants over 2

There was some behind the scenes dealing on that car between the auction house and the seller. The buyer got a deal, no doubt, but the circumstances are not at all repeatable or indicative of the general P1 market...
