Couldn't help thinking that myself...

It appears to have been advertised since 2016 or longer with exactly the same spiel and images. Very strange ...

Own horn was blown in the first post when they tried to sell their MX5 by mentioning all the other cars they also own. Not entirely sure how that's relevant to the sale, but good on you I guess. I certainly wouldn't buy it but I'm also not the target market either.

I'm sure you're a very important person coupekid and if bragging to people you obviously consider lesser makes you feel big then all power to you. However please don't show up with something even the aficionados have never heard of, slap a 3x price tag on it, insult people, and then expect to be taken seriously.

At least PP was mildly entertaining. BB was a hoot, and I must add helped me with some personal stuff off forum, as well as helping me with my SE build.

coupekid, the potential interested party I referred the ad to feels uncomfortable due to your posts. they wanted to pass the feedback constructively so the next time you sell something, it may go through smoother.

Low teens for a low km clean NA seems reasonable.

Did anyone else notice the geo-tag on, at least, one of the photos?

A quick Google search using a fairly generic descriptor of the house, in other photos, and the locality, gives the house address and last sale price and date etc. From that it's dead easy to get a lot more.

We live in interesting times. Keep you pants buttoned up folks; last you be caught with them down.

I remember I mentioned to BB to not post pics of his new Rolex in case someone else online took a liking to it. But stupid is, stupid does.

Missed you Craig :)

I did find a link to the original millen body kit brochure on the big forum at one stage.

Still would love to see the paperwork that shows Mazda Australia rolled out this limited edition model nationally and it wasn't an enterprising dealer who optioned it up. It's cool to know all the unicorns in the stable.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
