Okay, given the info you are relaying on the marketing for the car, and your desire to keep asking price out of the discussion, we can safely assume the vendor is asking very large money.

The bottom line advice I give to people in these situations is, if you are willing to stomach a top end price, then you should be able to afford to fly out and see the car.

I have bought eight or more cars from a distance and I have one golden rule: never pay retail, let alone high retail, for a car not seen and driven in the flesh. (Unless you are buying from the guys at Mercedes Motoring or some such.)
