    Looks like the carbon fiber sports seats out of a 430 or 360 - same option for 575 at the time?

    Looks like the CNC car that bikerbob100 posted has the same seats. I couldn't recall ever seeing them in a 575 but apparently they were an option.

    I remember when that same car was for sale on ebay for $50k about a year ago but had a white wrap on it. Ill have to look at my pictures to find it.

    The seller mentioned that it still has the wrap on it. You can see it in the engine bay photo.

    That is 133729 that I almost bought 8 years ago. Here she is in white wrap. Has some good features, but strange color mix. Would need a really good PPI. Have tons more photos from 2008 if anyone is interested.

    yes, strange interior colors. How many miles did it have when you looked at it? How was it's condition?

    Walker- Seems like she had about 20,000 miles on her back then and was in pretty good shape. We never came to an agreement on the trade in on my 08 Z06 with 537 miles. I have 60 photos of her from back then. My intention was to convert all that crema to cuoio to match the dash and headliner. Had no idea what FHP was 8 years ago, but quickly figured I wanted it. Did not know much about 575s then.

    Terry, I thought the same thing about the interior. Seems like having the seats recovered and buying a new rear shelf would about do it. If the car is in good mechanical condition, with FHP and modulars, it may not have been a bad buy at their asking price. I do love the blue 575's though.
