3) The bra shows the seller spent money to protect the car. Another huge plus that tells you everything you need to know about the seller.

It takes a special kind of fool to think since there are no repairs, there will continue to be none, and to prefer a car with no maintenance done.
But, I can see irrational people thinking one car is "cursed" and one where nothing went wrong (yet) is somehow better.
The reality is the opposite. The more repairs, the less you need to do yourself.
You seem obsessed with 986 prices, judging by practically all of your 19 posts since summer. What gives? Still looking to buy, or is this your car? You asked for opinions.

The counterpoints to all of your points have already been made. It takes a special kind of fool to think that a bra on a car is a good idea.

If you think the car is such a steal, then you should buy it.
Let us know how that works out for you.
