What is the story on this Baton Rouge 360 for sale?

I've seen that car around BR.

It sounds like there is a story behind the car so the price is well in the low side. Fair enough.

 

Glass and airbags are both expensive items, but not rocket science......

 

Looks like a good price. The person listing it sells alot of high end salvage title cars. Seems legit but just know what your getting before you buy. Not great cars for resale, but if you just want the look with the fun of driving it can be a good buy.

 

I don't understand. It seems for 58k why not just keep it?

 

It's NOT his Car...He's selling it for Someone.....I emailed him and asked about the Salvage title and any records or paper work.....

He said If I want Paperwork..go to the Library ....

I asked him when was it serviced last? He told me," I'm sure somebody has serviced it once, if it starts knocking, bring it to Walmart and change the oil"....

He's either real funny and not serious about selling it OR a Real Jerk....either way I Wouldn't Touch it with a !0 ft pole. Doesn't seem like that good of a price anyway for the year. Especially if you consider you'd have to do a major on it right away....may be the first one in 10 Years.... Who knows

 

Just reading the comments at the bottom he sounds like a total jerk.

 

I agree!

 

This is the guy here on Channel 2....

I used to manage a TV station in the Baton Rouge market. If my news crew ever did a story on a car for sale other than the Batmobile, I would fire them all.

 

Must have been a slow news day...

 

Same seller has a Boxer for sell; link and back story: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=270409

 

I figured it was a flood car but the last link explains it, the car was probably cut in half with another total and pieced together with duct tape and some wire hangers. Anyone who is as arrogant as this guy and thinks the price is low enough to not have to answer any questions should probably go lower in price. I'm thinking it's a 20K car. That would leave room for the possible 60K in repairs it may need, or would make the blow less painful when you realize it crabwalks (front and rear wheels not aligned to go straight) These are all guessed, I don't know the car but F-cars that you would want to buy come from people who are happy to share the cars history, good, bad and ugly.

 

On the flip side, Enzo would have worse racing car wrecks thrown together to race again another day.

 

It seems like the guy buys wrecked and repossessed boats and cars and re-sells them without actually doing any repairs. I know he had a speed boat for sale with twin lambo engines thrown in the sale, but the boat and motors were in different states.

 

True, however the vast majority were repaired in-house!

 

And I'm sure to Enzo the cars were simply a means to an end. I don't know for sure but I'm thinking after they were no longer useful he'd strip them down and use them as parts for the next project. Or just sell them off.

 

But we digress, I think the 360 is probably a lot of heartache waiting to happen.
