    There is a reason it is titled in Nevada - the red paint would be the least of the problems!

    I saw this car at the '05 Scuderia Rampage. Same plates back then, so I assume it's been with the same owner.

    Hard to tell from the ad, but if there's nothing major wrong with the car, that's a good buy.
