September 3rd, 2024 at 9:33pm ESTVTBlue (0) 0Very, very well bought. As an owner of a '92 (that I dearly love), I was anticipating a higher figure. This may well be the "buy of the year" regardless of vehicle or selling platform.September 3rd, 2024 at 7:05pm ESTquantumorbit (11) 0Great price for the condition and history. Would've continued bidding if I did not have one already. Congrats to @fastlpSeptember 3rd, 2024 at 5:58pm ESTGoBoGo (102) 0Wow, stolen! A beauty!

September 3rd, 2024 at 4:16pm ESTARI1 (20) Seller 0@APSloan1 I’m not noticing anything to stand out like that. September 3rd, 2024 at 3:50pm EST$32,000 bid placed by @greaterlakesSeptember 3rd, 2024 at 3:02pm ESTAPSloan1 (4) 0Usually there is a tag on it with a date code. That said, I don't know where to look on the harness for the tag. I know the factory replaced some harnesses under warranty so maybe when Renntech examined it was a replacement harness???September 3rd, 2024 at 2:58pm ESTARI1 (20) Seller 0@APSloan1 We had Renntech go through all systems and advise. They replaced the starter harness but deemed other harnesses to be in good condition. How would you tell if updated?September 3rd, 2024 at 2:41pm ESTAPSloan1 (4) 0Does the car have updated wiring harnesses or are they the originals?

This car is definitely the 500E you would want to buy. 500Es are slowly advancing in value, but this one ought to be worth considerably more than average.August 28th, 2024 at 4:34pm ESTARI1 (20) Seller 041 photos showing trunk, undercarriage, $13,000 service receipt at RennTech etc did not make it through and will be added shortly so please look for those. @APSloan1 Date codes on tires are 2019. We installed the new Continentals and they have traveled maybe 25 miles. They have been freshly balanced even though there was no shake, vibrations etc. A driving video can be seen above and a cold-start vi
