I'm sure the newbie forum "experts" will now weigh in about how the buyer is a complete a......hole for paying this much.
Just sayin'.............

Hang on there, pal.....
Look below at the description provided us in the original post: Not a single mention of this thing being "pristine".. ... or perfect. All of the description, and even the very title of the thread, was about how ultra-rare it is, and how it's 1 of 1. Hell, he never even mentioned the mileage!
Now read the description in his listing on bat:
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2002-porsche-boxster-s-22/
Not a single mention of "1 of 1" or ultra-rare. Rather the seller focused on incredibly well- maintained, complete, low mileage, etc.
So I ask you: same car? How would we know from either description?
Yeah.... i'll give you that I was expressly "cheapening" the car.... because I get weary of all y'all who want it to be something it's not. But I watched one just SIT, forever, on the market in utah that looked every bit as nice as this one, and asking price was $8500. I should've bought it, then listed it on BAT, I guess.
As to the buyer? Nah.... I'd never call somebody a name for overpaying for a car because he fell in love and made an impulse-purchase. I've done it a dozen times. Nor have I regretted those purchases, because.... well.... I was in love.
So.... whatever dog you had in this fight, I guess he'll have to eat elsewhere.
