Ahhh Yes.... From the ashes.....A race car may be born!!

I dont see alot of blood on the interior.... so hopefully the Air bags and seat belts worked and the occupant(s) walked away!

The car in the wrong hands and this is the outcome.

Like danbo56 said, that is a nice price for a track car as long as there was no frame damage.

That puts new meaning into "Drive it like you stole it"

If the frame is gone, is it really worth that much??

HELL NO!! I would say $20k would be a fair number IF the engine is still in proper working order. I only see these items worth salvaging:

$10-13k - Engine & electronics
$1-2k - Transmission
$2k - Interior (seats, trim, nav, etc etc)
$2k - Rims & tires
$500-1k - Exhaust
$1-3k - Right front & rear fenders, rear bumper and rest of non damaged body parts

So I figure all that MAY be worth in the $20k range??

Hard to believe someone paid $35K for that train wreck! Looks like the tub is cracked too.

But its ebay, what do you expect?

There is no rhyme or reason for a lot of what goes on over there. It would not surprise me if the guy who was "selling" it, could have had one of his buddies bid the price up to see how many suckers would match it or top it.

Because so many think that eBay sets the market on Z06s, the next guy who comes in here with one busted up just as bad will swear up and down that his is worth at least $35k because thats what this one went for over on ebay.

It ended with a buy-it-now so unless his friends are retarded it went to a real bidder.

It looks like a test drive or a stolen car since the window sticker and the warning tags are still all there
