I am guessing around 50K final bid?
Auction ends today and its currently at $37.5. If it goes for under $40 I might kick myself for not bidding. That's a lot of car for that money.

My favorite E39 color.
Even with 126K miles, the bad presentation and the lack of maintenance it still sold at 14K.

Yeah, hell no. I am not sure how much I would have paid, but it would definitely have been under $10k.

I figured if I mentioned the slushy no one would click through. I struggled with the pic to tell if it was Techno or Cosmos.

This is the kind of 911 I want, but without a/c delete and sunroof. No real opinion over rear seat removal. Looks like solid driver condition. Not so nice that I'd be upset for more than 5 seconds if I noticed a new door ding, but in reasonably good worry free shape that I wouldn't hesitate drivi it anywhere.
