Hi, it's been awhile since I've posted as we sold #227 to a friend 2 1/2 years ago and I don't come here often anymore.

I was looking at the Auto Trader for our area and came across 00 R #221 for sale in Puyallup, Wa. Here is the ad:

I'm curious as to what it will bring. Anyone know of any other R's in this condition? This car is just a few hours north of me. Surprised I have never heard of it.

2000R on Ebay

Has anyone noticed the price jump from $45K+ to $60K+ since this morning, BUT reserve not met.

I sold my 55-Mile Car 2000R Wrapper about 6 months ago...For the High 50's......The car on Ebay sold for about 42K about 3-4 years ago, as I recall.....It was on a site of a performance car showroom.....I remember the car.........I don't think it will make sellers reserve, especially right before Christmas and a soft economy.....If I owned this car, and placed it for sale on Ebay..... it would have at least a 70-75K Reserve.......

Since this car is only 20 miles from me, I emailed the seller yesterday to see if we could get together. He said yes, so I will follow up. I would like to see his wrapper and all of the other cars in the photo that are covered up. Like you guys I never knew that there was another 00 R close to me.

Maybe THAT is why he didn't want to send me pics! He is embarrassed!! HA HA!

In all seriousness to the "tire kicking" types of calls when selling a car... I have sold cars that brought on tire kickers too... my Pantera, a Cobra, and many other Stangs. Never once did I place an ad online, and not have additional pics of my vehicle available at the request of a possible buyer. I mentioned to the owner of the 00R that I currently own a modded '03 Cobra and a SuperFormance 427 Cobra. I also asked specific 00R related questions about his car. I was at a loss at his unwillingness to send additional info or pics. So, I gave up. I'll spend my 40K elsewhere.

It might be a great car. Good luck to anyone else that makes the phone call.

Powershift, you can find another R from that one try one of these:

Then you can get that Black terminator out of the garage :coolman:

I wonder if this is a test.....if you look at the bidding....only 2 bidders, 82K, reserve not met.......Could this be shill bidding or the real thing???????. I like to see a better mix of different buyer bids.......But this could be real......Wonder what a 93R in this condition will fetch???????

It looks like 2 bidders are chasing this car from about $75K-up. Before that point, there was a mix of bidders.

I now have pictures of mine(see above post), if anyone needs them or would like to post them here, I will send them to you...

Carter - I just read your post. If you want your 95R pictures to be posted, send them to me and I will link them through photobucket.
