Please keep in mind that I really like coupes!

It doesn't matter what the title says, it's a 450. You just can't get around that with a 107 024 stamped on the frame. From what the pictures show, it's a needy #4 car with a poor quality repaint tarted up with some wood, a trunk badge and a spoiler. It comes with a seller who is either dishonest or knows nothing about the car. Neither bodes well for its provenance.

I think the market would value this car in the 2500-3000 range on a good day and assuming no obvious mechanical or roadworthiness issues. Remember, there's almost no upside on these cars. If you really want one, find a good one with a real history and buy it right.
