that wheel is sure more detailed than my 400K + SD... the grille dents could be from the first day out of the dealership, it could be legit. out of my league either way.

Seller said he relisted due to so many retractions, which doesn't make sense. That is no reason to relist-I guess he gets free extention on his auction (maybe). The ones who bailed said they could not contact seller with questions. Seller put some words to the effect "check out the car before you bid". Makes sense, but if he misrepresents the car, deal is off.

BEWARE: he says you have to pony up $500 within 24 hours to a PayPal account. I would guess if the deal falls through you would never see that $500 again. I seem to recall reading something about NON-REFUNDABLE, which I think is crap unless a buyer just jumps ship.

Wow, so that's what mine would look like with an original paint job-that car is EXACTLY the same as mine except for 1 year older (and a lot less miles & non-turbo)-is that back door hinge panel melted or what (looks like it molded to somebody's hand or something). Those front grilles are very fragile, actually the chrome dents really easily. I'd rather have mine with the roughly $3000 I have in it, instead of the $10 K that's going to go for, with my luck somebody would run into or even scratch the paint on that car, and bye-bye collector's item value!

BTW, that oil pressure/temp gauge is legit, mine's exactly like that one, cold oil pressure varies according to what type/viscosity you run-mine only pegs cold at idle with dino 15W40, 5W40 syn only gives around 2 cold on mine.
