Like the title says, I'm interested but I'm looking to know more about the car. Any info would be appreciated via pm. Not worried about it being tracked, I just want to make sure it hasn't been crashed.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's been crashed.
I know from a friend at PCNA that a white .1 RS was crashed and this one:
-air vent painted in front bumber. factory is black.
-PCCB replaced with steel rotors...probably due to tracking and abuse as they should last the life of the car.
-I'm 100% sure that all RS cars had the "sport" steering wheel airbag cover...this one is the non-sport. was probably a cheaper fix after the airbag deployed and it's not a factory steering wheel
-If I'm being really paranoid I'd wonder if the wheels weren't repainted just for aesthetics.
-and the non-stock seats likely to replace seat mounted airbag deployment at lower cost.
-it's also in Quebec.
And $90K for an RS...if it's too good to be true that's because it isn't.

That would be enough for me to stay away!

All that said...have it inspected independently and if it's OK then beat them down to $70,000.
There was an orange one from out West that had a minor crash and sold for $72,000-ish a year or so ago.

That's a little off topic but it's a 996GT3 that's priced well under market. Report states clean, but bit on paint blemish on lower bumper and peppered windshield (my guess heavy tracking).

Tracking is pretty easy to spot if you get the car on a hoist. Any serious track guy has been "off" and there will be all kids of gravel jammed into panels, under-body scratched, rubber in the wheel wells, etc...

I'd rather a well driven track car than some amateur grinding gears in stop and go traffic.
That said, I'm there are plenty on non-tracked GT3s...in Malibu;-)
