This is a unique car, D -MAN. it was advertised for 100 grand a few years back, and allegedly sold for something near that, depending on who you believe. it's got 9000 miles, and is in pristine condition for it's age

You can still buy a decent FB or EK for around 15 grand or less. Just got to be patient, and don't be shy to make a low ball offer on something you may think is overpriced.

Like me, anyone interested in Shannon's auctions would have received the booklet on this auction and already noticed the original price guide before it was changed, it was done to late, we all saw it.. :crazy:
