Have any of you been able to contact this seller or looked at this Super? I would be interested in looking at this bug, and I have emailed the seller several times with no response. Wondering if theres a way to contact the seller.

It's been for sale for 3.5 years.

He joined and immediately posted the ad. Never posted in the forums, or posted anything in the gallery or any other ads.

Makes you think, what's the story?

Send him a PM. If you don't get a reply, the ad should be deleted.

Sometimes (if the seller is anything like me), people will go a week or more without checking mail.

Also, if there has been little interest in the car over the years, he just hasn't realized that suddenly, somebody (you) may be interested. That happened to me on an acquisition several years back, I feared the car was sold, but he just busy with life. I ended up with the car Smile

Go visit the Grand Canyon while you are there checking out the car.

I deleted the ad.

He got MORE than enough emails to sell it 5x-10x over.

I bet it's a scam ad no one ever reported and I didn't catch.
