Another Tasty BaT offering...EH!

[zinz]

I notice there has been no bidding since the curtain has been pulled back on the shortcomings of this car.  It will be curious how things finish up.

BaT indicates there is often a huge flat spot of bidding in the middle. The big bids now will happen in the last 15min...

I am always wrong but 48k bat, 2 years to sort including the 116k mile S14 build.

Sold for 64K, Apparently all the nit picking didn't hurt the sale price

I thought I was high at 58!

Bidding started like gang busters  hit a dead spot for days, then  finished like a mad housewife  on a spending spree.....crazy.

 

Maybe BaT should institute speed bidding and just cut out all the drama.

What do you mean when you say “I was high at 58?“ You personally bid that amount or that’s what you guessed that it would ultimately sell for?

buyer paid a lot of money to win a local cars and coffee....

 

and that is before he pays a lot more money to get this project finished/fixed...

[jgerock]

Unbelievable results for an unfinished car.  Will be interesting to see if it bubbles back up on another auction.

 

I never get lucky selling any of my vehicles. Maybe I should intentionally do something wrong to gather lots of attention whether it be good or bad.?

Still the “M2” benchmark:

...and yes, obviously in a totally different league!

I hope the new owner gets on the FAQ and we can help them sort it all out. It will take time and not a lot of $$$ to complete it.  Yeah a bit on the high side but that only helps all of us right?  To the new owner (if you see this): you bought a really nice car that is almost there to be complete.  Fix all the little annoyances and drive the wheels off of it.

A show car that had only been driven less than 500 miles after VSR built it.  Wonder if the new owner has driven it?

yeah, the speaker pods, belts and the gauges especially...I bet the buyer changed those items immediately!

Not sure that I’d wish that upon him lol. I actually thought that the selling price was correct for the car all-in-all, assuming that the motor is ok. I don’t see it as “unbelievable” at all.
