This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    It's an eye-catcher!

    With $70K invested (plus whatever the car purchase price was on top), the seller is going to take a deep bath on this sale.

    It's Richard Griot's (of Griot's Garage) car & I'm sure he (as do we all) realizes that when you pay ppl to do everything it's the rare occasion you can recoup that.

    It'll be interesting to see what it goes for. I'd take it right to the BCA Nationals this year! Good thing I don't have space/$, lol.

    It's not a 4-door, so not really that popular in Scandinavia, this because of the higher asking price in North America for a 2-door coupe.

    It just turned up on eBay, same add, same car. It's gorgeous, the exact model I always wanted, I'd buy it if I could afford it, but....yeah.

    $59k on BAT + 5% & transp. Doesn't seem like much meat to be flipping it but hopefully for flip's sake he knows more than I do about that market.

    Nice Car! Were I searching for a car built the same year of my birth, that specimen would be a STRONG candidate.

    You'll also note that the pictures are exactly the same as those used in the BAT ad.

    Hmmm...

    The BAT seller says the ebay listing is fake, and it looks like it's been removed from ebay.
