What I gathered reading the sales ad and looking over the photos.

That car is build 563 (listed on the bottom list of the Cert of Origin) 2007.
The 17 wheels are more of the giveaway on the vintage.
Wiring looks like a 16yr old kid got a hold of it. (Battery has stacked pickoffs, Fast controller box wiring exposed). Man if if you want to show the box at least get it right side up.
Front springs falling off the upper perches.
L-R valve cover breathers have a bit of the "I got enough fittings around the the garage to make this work" look. At least get two breathers that match even if you can't plumb.
Dyno sheet from 2013 shows 589 FWHP. and it drops to 376 RWHP in 2018?
Most shops use a 15% power loss which would make it appox 500 RWHP. Even a 20% loss puts it around 470 RWHP. I'm throwing up the BS Flag on the 2013 dyno sheet.
Paint and Body work were done by a Jeff Miller. I'm guessing Jeff painted the Block and Tranny since BDRs come pre-painted (Quite nicely) and this car's paint matches the Cert of Origin (Same paint that's on mine).
Not a bad car and its a fair price for an early BDR.
