That is a great price...about what I paid for a Roller. If I didn't already have a car, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

There are three on ebay now. This one just came up. One roller and another complete car of late 90's vintage. Other than the billet parts which I don't really like is there much difference between the older ones and the current? Thanks

Wow - I assume this is the "catalog car" that was used on a bunch of their promotional materials? Gorgeous.

Looks like the KMP boys are trying to buy it back asap, tough to sell new cars when the after purchase sale is so low.

Tempting, VERY tempting. Lets see, single roll bar (check), 15" wheels (check), 427 side oiler (check), wood wheel, correct shifter, etc. etc, (check check check).

Well kick me in the balls, sure looks like the right setup.

Uh oh, orange plug wires, no wonder it's in the 50's.

It's a good idea to keep some older, crappier ones around to become CSX cars.

I would have bought it for sure.... I paid 57k for my contemporary just two months ago. I guess with the upgrades i have and engine quality they are about even in value but that is a great price for an aluminum body. I couldn't wait though... needed to quench my thirst!!!

One would think the seller would invest a couple hundred bucks in a better auto detailer?!? The interior is a mess and much of the paintwork is fogged in sections. Not a good presentation for a car selling north of $50K, in my humble opinion.

............1000 / 7000 / 8000 series are still made in Vegas (vs HST or SPF). To that, some parts are outsourced as is the case with many manuf's.

Look like the KMS bid was $50K, and was declined. Someone bought it, I would guess at the "Buy it now price"? Doesn't say if that happened or who did it. Hmmmmm

Orange plug wires are period correct, as the comp cars used special wires that were an orangish-tan color.

Whoa! Good call Sal, I'm going right out and get me some. No wonder the Kirkhams were bidding on it.
