Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 This car was offered to me for 100k. I know its got the miles and what not. Does anyone recognize this one? I understand the current owner bought it in March of this year and is already unloading it, hmmmmm I am curious to know the dirt on its history. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LAMBORGHINI...=item255c04553c Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Dunno, but Im willing to bet you could get it for less than 100k. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Wow look at this title record, Looks like the first owner drove it for 33k miles then it bounced from Auction to Auction house and the miles got all screwed up. What does that mean in real world terms? The car also has no service history. ________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________ 01/29/2004 68 BLUE BELL, PA Motor Vehicle Dept.

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 18, 2010 I think if you buy the car for cheap enough, it makes no difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Allan, What would you pay for it, what do you think is a good price knowing that it is a problem child with a bi polar history? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abolfaz Report post Posted July 18, 2010 TMU at that price is stupid. I would say no more than $75k. I've heard of 02's with miles trading in the $60's, obviously not the best examples..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaginBull Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Get it for 75k or less and none of that matters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaginBull Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Wow, abolfaz's post and my last one came in with the same number at the same time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 They will go to 93-95k, thats as far as they will go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted July 18, 2010 I was gonna say 80k if the car is decent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Lets play the hypothetical game and see whats left at the end of the day. Pay 95k, paint it ithaca green the right way. Drive it and enjoy. It will wind up a pretty car in good shape but with a history. Has anyone ever done this sort of thing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will wind up a pretty car in good shape but with a history. Has anyone ever done this sort of thing? That I would not do.. I would drive and enjoy it the way it is, knowing the money you saved.. At most maybe I would do a wrap.. Then again I wouldnt pay 95K.. if it was really in nice shape, just higher miles maybe go 85k, but no way 95 for the car being TMU.. Have you seen the car upclose yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Well im supposed to go drive it in a few hours but I'm second guessing the car with the history and all. Supposedly the clutch was replaced, new stainless exhaust and tune up completed recently. I know you can wrap the cars for 2k or so. I have never seen one up close though so I cant be sure what it will look like. Does it save the paint for removal later? Also, whats TMU stand for?

TMU= TRUE MILES UNKNOWN I would definitely go drive it, make sure everything works.. I think a good wrap is 4K or so.. Yes, it saves the paint, and can be removed at anytime.

Assman Report post Posted July 18, 2010 No matter what get a thorough ppi by a tech that really knows the cars. Replacement/repair of parts can add up fast. A year ago I had a pearl yellow one owner 30k mile 02 with factory clear bonnet and solid service hx offered at 100. To give you an example of a similar car.

Charlie Report post Posted July 18, 2010 PPI a must! That color is a great color...(I am biased since that is my favorite color). You would be nuts to wrap it or change the color...painting the color would be an idiot move since you might as well put that money to a color you really like and will probably will be in the color you like for the same amount in the end - good paint/clearcoat work is not cheap to do it right. PPI - at those miles be sure they check the rotors and pads well, just getting new rotor and pads will run you $10k (for all four wheels)! Good luck!

Dr. Noisewater Report post Posted July 18, 2010 Well I just got back from driving the car. Long story short, its showing a lot of wear. Cracked hood from someone sitting on it. The interior is badly worn. Buttons are worn down, e-brake boot is a mess along with a good worn down feeling. Couple all that with no service history and 30k plus miles and I am passing without question. If anyone is interested they can contact me for more details and possibly save a trip. PPI a must!
