auction

Anyone familiar with this car? What do you guess it will go for?

 

[GraphiteGTS]

High bid 57K; won't meet reserve.

 

[viper GTS-R]

ok there's a reserve but in the description he mentions there is no reserve.Ugh.

 

[Bad_Byte]

It was previously listed for an opening bid of 63K but didn't get any bids.

Something's fishy about this one.

PS: B&D Rockers...?

 

[FranciscoR.]

Look VERY closely around the wheel wells and right behind the driver's front tire. And look at the passenger headlight. They almost look photoshopped.

I agree. Something is not right. BTW, does roe make a 10 lbs pully?

 

[lleone]

I sent the seller and inquiry. I don't think the pictures were chopped, I'd expect more blending artifacts, but I could be wrong. I suspect it's just more of a clueless seller. Did you look at the list of their other items? It's massive... makes me wonder if it all "fell off a truck".

If the guy were to clean it and strip all of those cheesy stickers off of the fenders it would sell.

Yes, several cars have the 10lbs pulley.

Are the black valve covers re-painted stock, or "aftermarket" ? (I hate my red engine) I would rather have black, aluminum, or a mix thereof...

 

[ChicagoGTS]

Seller's from AZ. run a carfax on the vin and see where it is....

Looks legit, that's exactly what I want to do to mine! (BASTARD!)

[BlownC5Roadster]

What's not right about it???? Perhaps the seller acquired the car in a trade and doesn't really know what he is selling...look at his other items up for auction. Mostly musical instruments and equipment.

The car is one mean Viper!

 

[lleone]

Funny, the gigs up in 5 hours and they still haven't written me back :-(

[GraphiteGTS]

The guy has tons of feedback. I think he is legit. Just doesn't know his product.
Wouldn't 1100 at the flywheel produce more RWHP than he has listed?

 

[ROCKET62]

SOLD - US $65,322.99. Maybe the buyer will see this and update us all.

 

[98MODMTR]

I sent the guy a email with this link. Maybe he will show up.

 

[98MODMTR]

Well I have been talking back and forth with the new owner. He registered but hasn't been allowed to post yet? Not sure if it's user error or what. He has read the thread and will post when he can.

 

[viperbound]

I think I just saw this same car listed on autotraderonline.com or $27500

Hmm, Bryan (new owner) has already taken ownership of the above car. He is having some more work done to it before he gets it delivered home. I am sure he will be on soon to update us in detail.

 

[GraphiteGTS]

Prices seem to be firming up.

 

[Supercharged Vipermad]

Looking into the Username now.....

 

[viperrt96]

If it sold.......Why is it back on Ebay
1000HP GTS on Ebay Just relisted

 

[viperrt96]

Did I forget to mention that it is a different seller now.

 

[Gerald Levin]

Plus you need to contact the seller prior to bidding to be "preapproved". Smells like tuna.

Looks as if it's already been taken down.

 

[LIVIPER]

So how did this one turn out? Someone here was taking to the purchaser. Is he/she happy with the car? Why was it relisted and withdrawn? Just curious.

 

[viperrt96]

It's obvious what happened. The seller (1st time) had someone bidding on his car for him in hopes that person will be out bided and they get what they want or more. Auction ended and his buddy has bought it. He (owner of the car) then relisted it under some other seller. Probably withdrew it when someone else confronted him (email) It's a crooked way of doing things and shows just how honest that owner is. There are good Ebay sellers out there but you have to do your homework and know what you’re buying.

 

[viperrt96]

Now do you believe it's a 1000hp Viper. I don't

 

[Supra]

I know for a fact the car dynoed 880 RWHP on NOS.

As far as the second listing on Ebay, not sure what was up with that. I do know I have seen my own car (on the sig) on Ebay 5 times, under 5 different Ebay handles. They were all fraudulent auctions trying to scam people. I emailed one of the people and they wanted me to send $$$ to the Czech Republic (keep in mind this is my OWN car!!!!).

The way they do these scams is that they somehow get a hold of peoples' actual accounts and use those accounts.

As you can see from the pics of my car we had to "watermark" them so they wouldn't keep using them.

If you guys are interested in the actual email I got from the con artist trying to sell me my own car let me know and I'll post it.

Now do you believe it's a 1000hp Viper. I don't
