They're trying too. I bet they gave the guy about $35-37k for trade against his new 2011. They're trying to find a sucker to cash in on.

They don't call em "stealership" for nothing! That is a shame how that looks, those tires are good indicator too how it was driven

Wheels $900x4=$3,600.00
Tires $350x4=$1,400.00
Bumper cover painted=$1,300
Rear diffuser=$200-300

Total $6,500 minimum.

The car with the mileage is about a $45k (full dealer retail) car without damage, just normal wear.

So I'd have to get it for $39-40k to even consider it and that's just settling anyway. So while they are asking $44,995 (at least that's what the internet says) the dealer can't reasonably expect to get more than $40k out of it. But some yahoo will no doubt buy it and that's his problem. Plus I have firsthand knowledge that these guys drive the crap out of these cars every year. They just don't care.

Notice the only close up of a wheel is the one wheel where the curb rash doesn't show up on camera.

I wouldn't give 40 for it. Well, I might give 40 out the door, tax, tag, title, everything. But I'd be hard pressed to do that knowing what its probably been through.

I know. That's why I didn't even want to go down there in the first place, but I saw it as I was driving by and at least now I know what the deal is with it.


Makes me want to put forged internals in mine though. I'd like to get to about 550rwhp in a reliable rotating assembly.

But I think I'll just get me new wheels and hood and call it a day. I've got the same hp as 2010 GT500 anyway.
