Yeah, there are lots of nice exotics in that area, b/c that's where the car dealers are located.

And, yeah, the reason I know that area so well is b/c I'm from Vancouver too!!

As far as I saw, no damage whatsoever. And I think that fuel cap is stock, as a lot of cars of that era have.

ahhh, canadian.

100000 euros is still quite a bit though.

ps, it might be rare, but I don't think its wanted that much though.




Newer ruf turbo (doesn't say if its a r-turbo though)

less km's, + cheaper
