It will be interesting to see what the reserve is set at since we know it was brought for 10K.

I think the auction said the car was in a flood.

Looks like a very nice SC... but in one of the backseat pictures, maybe it's the reflection, but it still looks wet.

the color is nice,but the car is too dark. i find myself like-ing the color, but struggling to really get a look at it.

would have to be a shade lighter color for me to want it.

That color really suits the lines of the SC is that the same bordeaux red that was introduced in 96? or is it a little darker?

With this kind of color, it often depends on the lighting conditions.

the color is very pretty, just too dull for me. ironically even jet black stands out more than this color. i'll take din's car or CitriKaciD's car.
