Well, it was a non-ESP TT.

The placement of the N75 and of course the blanked out button on the IP are give aways.

Almost 100K miles and no keys... Buy it now for $12K?

No thanks, but I'll take a bag of whatever he's smoking.

What a jack@$$. Buy it now for 12k?

The throttle body looks like it got smacked, and the front drivers side CV joint looks like it's focked, too. This is bad news. Engine and transmission problems will plague this car unless at least the intake and head is rebuilt... who knows the condition of the cv joint on the trans. This car is for a hardcore rebuilder, not worth more than 6k total if you ask me. I wouldn't trust this engine unless I hoisted it out and rebuilt everything but the short-block. Even that might have leaks depending on how hard the intake got smacked.

I love the justification as to why this person thinks this POS is worth $12k - too bad the $6k salvage yard engine is also a ripoff. You can probably find a 225 '01 for about $18-20 - in perfect working condition - I saw one sell in CT a month ago for 16k with 59k miles - a 225 Quattro Coupe. This thing is gonna need at least $5k in parts. The frame is probably mangled on the front drivers side, too.
