That's a really cool car looking for pretty specific buyer. It's not really an M491 anymore, but it has the VIN which will add a premium (big, small? I don't know).

The car does need to be cleaned up and once ready to market will be an all consuming pain in the ass to sell, so I think option 3 consignment is really the only option. I would not fire sale it for convienience; the buyer is out there for the car.....they just need to be located and hand held.

Two things that are absolute necessities before selling it:

1. Get rid of the fiberglass fenders (why the hell does it have fiberglass fenders??!!)

2. Eliminate all trace the car may have had a cage in it. You'll want to disclose that, but having it clean takes away from the track rat fear factor.

Otherwise, I'm super jealous of that car. It's the turbo equivalent power NA Carrera that guys like me (that hate turbo and all the lag/cheap power they stand for) would relish in a clean street "factory" hot rod.

I have no idea on price. I honestly think it could bring anywhere from $40-70k.
