Sunlit Gold with Black top and interior.

Not certain how this extreme change will affect the final price vs what it bid to the last time.

Does anyone know who the real seller is of this car? 911R is brokering it.

I am little disappointed in the work done. The floor patching isnt really up to standard. Personally, I think the money spent could have been done differently. Just my opinion.

Agree. I think the owner made some poor choices that will be expensive.

" I think the owner made some poor choices that will be expensive. "
 

Why change the color from sunlit gold.....according to the M report it was one of 83, or something like that....... ?

I don't understand the color change on this particular car. If you were going to do it then black would be my only choice. Prior auctions show no premium of Acapulco blue over sunlit gold. Maybe the owner did it his way and unforeseen circumstances  or opportunities warrant the sale now. When a car is brokered you have zero feel on why the car is for sale so quickly after a lot of work has been done and money spent in most cases. This is one. The "power washing lines" are still visible over the rattle can paint in the front DS wheel well.  :o

well someone took a BATH on this car. Pete, it cracked me up in the final minutes when 911R does his "picture push" he posts a pic of the POS Scott Drake repo shifter knob. That 40 dollar part that isn't worth 10.

Yes someone spent a lot of money on "lipstick" and it didnt make them a return. Hows that $185 hour detailing look now?

Not only that they paid 911R to sell it for them.

Hopefully the new owner can sell the white interior and return it to the original combination of colors. And fix the rest of the car.

You think hes going to sand off the new $30k blue and make it gold?

I doubt that.

He will be lucky to keep his feet off the ground with those floor patches
