I've always been suspicious of these eBay offers.
What exactly does it mean "over 600hp" and "lighter by 400lbs". What exactly has been done to the car and what are the currenct specifications?
If I had the money to buy one, I sure as hell would like to know everything about it, not just "over 600hp".

That seller says he's selling it for someone else who got all the work done by Novitec. An exotics dealer could probably buy it, look over it to make it everything is functional and probably sell it for double that price...

Well it does say a lot, he mentions Novitec did it all than if you look at what Novitec claims that's where he gets his #'s from.

The only thing that is a bit iffy for me is if he's going to go "all out" and add all that power to his car and "make lightness" with all the CF stuff, why does he still have the those heavy ass Daytona seats?
 
Ah seeing that reminds me of my dad's old A6. The interior was so nice to be in. But that car - DO WANT, however not in that colour. I see an RS6 almost everyday, and I am still amazed at it. It just looks epic fun, and you can take along your family too!
 
I happen to think the yellow is rather nice.

Black and Silver is too overdone these days.

grey/black/silver/dark blue FTL

Ah, good old Falcons. Plenty of them around.

I'm still surprised at the prices that the original mini commands.
