In the bat ad it states the bumpers and mirrors were repainted do to yellowing.

Nice pictures. I sold the seller the correct exhaust manifold but I could never find a USDM header shield. He added an aftermarket cat which is a good thing.

That front splash shield in white is pretty bad. It also has blue non-OEM spark plug wires. I think it is odd he left the aftermarket wipers on.

This is a driver spec ITR with mods reversed. My 98 is quite similar but with more mileage. I am removing an old Compustar alarm next Wednesday on mine. A professional is doing it.

Yep as stated later in dc231’s comment those were the type of pics people are looking for. The filtered museum photographer wasn’t looking for the actual car details.

I was referring to you quoting all the pictures It happens though

A couple of folks mentioned the splash shield being painted. The splash shield isn't there. What's shown is the underside of the front bumper cover, which in original finish is a much lighter coat of body color. On this car it stands out more because it's been repainted and is brighter.

Whoa, reserve wasn't met at $40,000. I thought it would go for more towards the end of the auction.

I'm surprised it didn't sell. How much is a nice CW ITR worth with about 90k miles? Can't be much more than $40k right?

Prices across the board might be coming back down to earth. These cars are limited production but inventory is readily available IMO. I'm less sympathetic to sellers going for ~$70k sales.
