    About right for $1 per mile but it looks beat up. Seats can be rewrapped but engine/tranny condition?

    probably -- considering it's the same color combination and wheels as the gothamdreamcars 458, and it's for sale locally in NJ

    Are Gotham's cars branded on a car fax to show "rental" status? If I were a buyer of a car I'd be pretty ticked if not... I just checked the link and carfax lists it as a "commercial vehicle"... I guess that means rental?

    Or worse yet one used in those tracks like exoticsracing.com which means really hard miles. I'd really want to know the car's history before buying.

    Does seem too high asking price given uncertainties/risks.

    I know its a different car but I drove my 2000 Toyota Celica GTS my first new car 41,000 miles in the first year. This was while going to college for engineering. It was about a 40-45 mile commute each way to NJIT though. Also was working at the time. When I wasnt in school in working I was in the car the whole entire time basically lol.

    For what it's worth, I was at Emporio, the dealer that had this Ferrari the other day. The owner confirmed it was the Gotham Dream Cars 458 and it sold.
