This morning it was bid up to $6000, it is now up to $30,000. Read the description, dealer claims it's one of 300 coming to US. I think they're trying to make it more rare to boost the final price.

I think this is part of the reason why folks don't always trust dealers. They would almost have to know that anyone interested in that car would know 300 is incorrect...but they post it anyway. Unless they don't know...which is almost as bizarre.

I've talked to so many dealers. Some don't say a number some said 300 some said 500 some told me 1000 for the world, and some even told me they were all sold and built already.

After talking to the shitty dealers I found real respect and appreciation for the dealers that just shoot it straight and really try to make a decent sale.

6days left and its near MSRP already.

Gtrain · 07-10-2011, 12:27 AM

I wonder what the reserve is.

Over MSRP now, as one would expect.

As far as the 300 number, dealer can claim he meant only 300 VOs (assuming roughly equal split of the currently unsubstantiated 1000 number). But clearly marketing tactics at work.

EINSER M · 07-13-2011, 12:32 PM

i bid on it for shitz and giggles, they just called me and want 59,995 for the car (their reserve). that means 10K+ markup.....

FJS · 07-13-2011, 01:19 PM

mmm, another hoser for a dealer

Gtrain · 07-13-2011, 03:42 PM

monday they said the reserve was $65k

S54 · 07-15-2011, 12:55 PM

Didn't sell. Auction was cancelled right at the end so no bidding history was saved, but last I saw it was in the $54k range.

Oliver1 · 07-15-2011, 02:24 PM

There is another one on ebay. Starting bid of $65,000. No takers so far. No history on the seller and no dealer info. Must not be built yet or is in route because it won't be available for another 3-4 weeks.
