Default Is this the lowest RS sale?

I didn't pull a carfax for accident history, but this number looks like someone just gave away the car or thought they were using a reserve:

Some cars sold for MSRP. So no.

There you have a true open market value (no back room dealing artificial scarcity).

Is it true that there are more RS than GT3 models. It certainly looks that way.

A Google search on the VIN shows that it has been for sale at dealers in CA, TX, and NV, which does not appear to include the eBay seller, and doesn't include the original sale. That's a lot of history for a 650 mile car. I would do some digging before accepting it as a comp for other transactions...

It was a no reserve car on EBay. I would bet good money it "sold" to someone shilling the auction. It'll be back up again....

I don't recall the exact numbers, but about the same number of each approx. 1800-1900 IIRC.
