    By the looks of things, it has been driven about 6K miles since these pics were taken. No close-ups, no details on the service history, etc. I wonder what "average, average, average" condition means??? Could be a good deal, but ask a lot of questions...

    That was posted for $48k few months ago, 12k miles is not the original miles.

    Sellers would tend to be optimistic...and for this one to call it average tells me there must be obvious issues. nitial price is nice but for a few extra $$$ up front you may get a much better car. And the big unknown is the PPI - hello valve guides??

    I called them few months ago before I purchased my 348. They said the car engine was rebuilt few years ago somewhere in CA and yes they roll back the odometer.

    Sounds like it would be a stretch then to refer to this car as "average". I think the 355 brotherhood would set the bar much higher on that qualification.
