Welcome, I see some of our other members recognize the car also. It looks just like one that has been on e-bay more than once over the last few months. I know I was very impressed with the car the first time I saw it and it's description. If your is that same car I think you will be very pleased with it.
Glad to have you on board.

So, if we can recognize an individual car just by looking at the different sets of pictures, does that mean we are observant or obsessive? At first I thought it might just be the wheels, but then again I'm pretty sure I could pick out Jonser's and Jeff K's cars pretty easily, even if they were missing their wheels.

Yeah I saw that one too! Sweet car indeed. Very nice clean look to it. I spy a K&N cone filter on there already!
Couple tips, Check the ball joints and check the slide pins for the rear calipers.
