Who owns it now?
it is owned by a guy in Houston ... who likes his privacy.
Interesting, you would have to pay me to accept a red interior. Enjoy your blue!
i used to say that too. i struggled with the idea of buying my Audi TTS as it had a red interior (with black carpet) ... but i love it ... color me converted. with a polaris (non CSL) car i think red, black and blue are my color preferences (in order) ... but i do like all of them and wouldn't tear any of them out unless the interior had to be redone. with chamonix - red, black, saddle and then blue ... but again, all are great. where i draw the line is with a black coupe ... i put red further down the list, unless its more of a red wine color
I hear you. There is red interior and then there is RED interior. The proper shade of red is important, too much is a distraction. Carpets, for instance, were not red from the factory and should never be. Unless you‘re going for that early 80’s Ford red interior look.
absolutely reminds me of my old silver on red '77 Ford F-350. yikes...
, suddenly the existing grayish dark blue leather looked better than ever.
it all depends on the color of the red. some reds work, some don't ... but the gray / black carpet makes all the difference
I think that's pretty much the norm on BaT. From what I've seen, bidding slows or stops after the 2nd day at about half or so of the final hammer price. Serious buyers don't seem to start bidding until there are 5-10 minutes left in the auction. This makes sense since there is no reason to bid up the car early in the auction...It's not a "live auction" where it can end any time bidding looks like it has stopped.
