GP #0753 for sale on BaT again

GP #0753 is for sale again and with no reserve it will be going to a new home. Seems to be a solid car but with recent history of sales it might be a bargain for someone.

^^^ Agreed as one that follows BaT listings on a regular basis...

It seems very clear that market demand for low volume / low mileage 1st Gen examples isn't waning. True, covid-era shortages with bump in used car demand and pricing continues - offset by current recession woes with buyers guarding discretionary spending more closely. If so, now might be the "window of opportunity" for someone here...

I predict it won't go for much more than last time, even with the recent work done to the car...

So C&B, then BAT, and now BAT again, all in one year. I'm guessing it'll sell for a little less than what it did earlier on BAT this year.

0753 seems to be getting the cold shoulder treatment as the bid is now $9,000 with about twenty six hours of bidding time left.

Woof. Seller must be getting a little nervous: 3.5 hours and only at 9.1k!

Wow, talk about depreciation! Seller can't be very happy with that result.

Owned it for four months and mentioned he already bought a 2919 370Z to replace it at the beginning of the auction probably didn’t help and yes I imagine until the $10K bump came he was really sweating it out.
