Yup, up here at 7000 feet on the east end of Big Bear Valley. You may have driven around big bear lake, lake arrowhead or even lake silverwood. those cinders are brutal on the paint job!

I saw that and made contact to see if it were true. It turns out that there was an error made in the listing so I'm not sure if that sale actually will go through.

If it does then there's one extremely happy owner of a GT1 Z06 at a screaming price.

I clicked on the facebook page to join the group. I was unable to "like" or comment on any of the postings though? Maybe because i was not part of the group yet?

Default They Basically told me to go H*** On my ebay purchase

What really makes this deal sick is that I know what they paid for this car $60,325 plus buyers fees but when the auction was over first they said no we ended it then they said it was a mistake???

Good luck with your situation John. If you want the car, and we all know the rarity of these, maybe try and use the situation to your advantage and renegotiate another deal, get the car and run from this dealership. I seem to recall other issues with this dealership when they got a couple of GT1 coupes from a no. california dealer that could not sell them.

This is where my GT1 came from and my experience was good so I'm sorry to hear these comments. This dealership does know how to move these cars and it appears they made a mistake here.

What is ebay's exposure in this situation? It was my understanding that they have some clout in these matters. Also, cant you leave negative feedback for them on ebay? Lionelguy

Another coupe for sale just added to list on first page. Black with lots of miles but under $40k.

That's 3 GT1's for sale that I can find by internet search which is the most I've seen for awhile. One Z06 and two coupes.

I read the article that was posted by link above and it appears to be a very gray area due to state by state laws.

1G1YG26E295300001 but I think that car is a Z06 that was raffled off at the NCM.

Here is the caption next to the picture of the gentleman winning the yellow Z06 on the NCM website...

Hi Brad, yes, you have my VIN number correct. it is VIN# 1G1YG26W795300004, which makes it the 7th one built, but technically, the first production built GT1 for sale to the public (the first three of each VIN sequence were the promo/demo cars that were built for GM to take around to shows and ALMS races).
