I paid 23k for it. I bought it about an hour after the ad was posted the guy selling it regretted it because he had offers come in for more $. If you can find a decent one for under 30k buy it before some else gets it.

Was this the guy selling it for his father-in-law? If so I was planning to go see it as well!

Well you won't believe what I ended up getting... I was torn between European and American muscle to compliment my Huracan. I ended up picking up this stunningly mint 68 Charger! First and only of the circular tail lights.

Here are some pics:
