Don't count on that. So many people with these kinds of cars are at their financial end in an effort to acquire it. They want to appear more successful than they really are, and are stretched so thin, or living in such a financial house of cards, that something like this might well do them in. I'm not saying that's the case here, but there are some indications. Like really, really bad taste...

The only one I've seen in person had an Audi powerplant and, I assume, other Audi running gear. So, other than body and maybe suspension parts, probably not much. And most of those parts look a little used up.
