I'm not sure which is worse, this or the Pink Panther that turned up in Florida. I'm glad I saw this before dinner or I would be hungry again....

eBay

Ad says "Please email me your questions". I've got one: WTF?

I propose that each and every person that reads this email the seller nothing more than "WTF???"

Maybe if he gets enough of those emails he'll pull the listing and burn the car!

LOL - I knew what car you were talking about before I even clicked the thread - that horrendous creation has been for sale forever! The dam owner should realize by now he would do better spending the $7k or so and having the car totally brought back to original specs

HIDEOUS to say the least. I was at Audi of N. Scottsdale yesterday looking at the two RS6's they have for sale and did not see it. It must be hidden on the roof. I don't even want to speculate what they gave for it in trade.

There must be more to the story on this car. I can't imagine the owner has a stable of freakshows. (Or maybe they do...)

This must be a repeat board, since this has been repeated a few times, including ebay.

Since none of you have ever seen that car in person.

Pic I took a long time ago when it was at my local dealer in San Jose for service.

I was told the car was owned by a woman when it was outside the shop for service and was told not to touch it. Almost 2 years ago. Look at the plate for a 'tail number' which traces back to Oregon. The first time it was on ebay it was located in Woodside CA, about 20 minutes away from where I live and now it is in AZ.

The quality of the paint job is excellent even if you do not like the colors.
