Well it's located in Canada, so does the seller want US$ 64,000 or Cdn$ 64,000 worth of bitcoin?

The ad says he wants 45 bitcoin, which works out to about 75K CDN. A new 718 Cayman S starts at 75k up here.

Thanks, I'm not up on bitcoin, I saw 45 BTC - bitcoin accepted and had no idea what the 45 BTC meant. The top of the ad also says $64.000. At today's exchange rate, US$64,000 works out to a little over 51 bitcoin. That's too much for a 2012 Cayman S down here too!

Uh... Sorta... Kinda... Not really...

They are usually called lobster claw wheels. Sometimes I hear lobster fork.
Shrimp fork is a new one, but you're (kinda) in the ballpark.

Major smoke.

Engine has new everything but I think AOS has gone bad because it went from no smoke to major smoke literally overnight.. Probably something simple. This is a strong running car that has had IMS bearing upgrades and doesn't need that much work. I will also consider parting out
Suuuuure, it's the simple AOS. That's why you're willing to part out a car that needs something simple, right?

It just sold for $8500! Way more than a 95 T-bird is worth.
