That shed build Merc is....an affront to the living. There are no redeemable features of the car, whatsoever. The builder should be beaten with a torque wrench.

Ugliest car ever? Perhaps.

Rare colour. "The car is finished in Audi Exclusive Emerald Green Mica, and correspondence from Audi shows it to be the only 2015 coupe produced with its paint and interior color combination."

The fact that it is literally the only one is certainly noteworthy.

Car actually looks pretty good, but that block soot means it's not running right, too rich. He probably made those engine mods and never got the car tuned...

Interior is in great shape.

Anyone watch Rust Valley Restorers on Netflix? They selling off their "field of dreams". Some interesting ones in there. Some pretty (really) tough. Remote-ish location might keep prices low.

My son loves it, I've seen a few episodes...Lotta TV magic going on, but it's entertainment. Definitely a lot of interesting stuff, just wish it were closer....transport rules these out for me.

If I was closer, these are the two I like:

Hardtop 86 Iroc, looks decent.
http://bid.theelectricgarage.com/Coming-Soon_i42591230

Short Box 4x4 square body, also looks decent

I wonder why they are selling off all their cars.  He always seemed like the hoarder type.  Hope he is okay and not having health issues or bankruptcy.

I would imagine the fix for rich is a lot less than the fix for too lean.  ;D

^^^I'm not surprised.  Nott has always been way out to lunch with their pricing.

I remember when their lot was still located on Lag, a mere couple kms down from my work.  Now half the lot is filled with condo townhouses, and the other half is taken up by a wonderful new carwash - Blondies.  The only place I take the Mazda and Tundra for washes.
