The only thing that car would be useful for is to strip it down to the chassis and start all over again. What a waste or 40K....where the hell is the buyer going to get a new dashboard?

Are you sure about that? It says right there in the eBay ad: "....and an authentic Sparco racing seat and yes Paul Walker sat there."

The ricer who buys this car can tell his homies, "Yeah, see this Sparco seat? Well, Paul Walker's ass was on this!! That makes it, like, special edition or something..."

or a new windshield for that matter...The ad states "The front windshield is made of Lexan..."

What a waste...

Hey does it seem right that the last bid was almost $17,000 more than the bid before it? Do the incremental proxy bids not show up in the bid history? Or was the seller just saving himself with another account?

Bid History
It's because the last guy, "estelius", used the "Buy It Now" option instead of just bidding for it like the other guys did...hence the big jump in bid history...
