Maybe he put in one too many zeros on the price.

Don't forget the dealer fees - " All applicable taxes and fees will be charged accordingly as required by the State of Florida. A fee of $495.00 will be charged to process the vehicle. "

Seems like a really nice car, but its an easy back story to make up to attempt to sell the car at a premium. The car appears to be in excellent condition overall but I would personally have to verify its history before making an offer.

Honestly, it looks like it hasn't been all that taken care of. The larger body panels look decent but the closeups look pretty bad. Interior is only meh. Looks like it spent quite a bit of time in the sun.

Car looks clean and I really like the color combo of polo green and tan interior, but this has got to be a misprint; definitely too many 9s in that price.
If it truly has the claimed "one of" uniqueness, he'd still be lucky to get $20,000.

I'd rather have the seller provide free oil changes, routine maintenance, and repairs for life, along with unlimited free 91+ oct gas. Then that price might be worth it.

That 407 hp rating is pretty optimistic. Or it's a GROSS rating.

The price is way, WAY more...optimistic.

IMO it is a typo. That is your typical 9k asking car these days. Should be 6,999.99. They just got excited with the 9's.

I don't know, he just may be serious. his ad starts out by saying,"What you see here is probably the most valuable Corvette Grand Sport GS80 ever produced. Truly a one of one car...." i'm sure the $99,999 figure is just a pricing place holder. he may be fishing for someone with more money than brains.

Even if you could it might not be a good idea. Just because you can sleep with your sister doesn't mean it is a good idea. Although people living in the sticks might disagree

If the brother & sister raised in the sticks are consenting adults, it's not illegal just very immoral!
