This is a shitty deal..... 
They are looking to get $28k out of the car that they claim is worth $34k new. So this is a $6k savings, but if you replaced everything broke or missing with oem parts, did all the work yourself and then took it in to have it re-painted you would easily hit $5600. So you are getting $400 off for your time and trouble?
I am sure you could get a new one and get them to knock the $400 off the sticker.

In one of the pictures you can see the blue ap1 that they took the engine shot of sitting right next to the berlina black ap2. I wonder why they didn't just pop the hood of the car they are actually selling. Something is shady there.

project car. 
new seats, hard top, wider fenders, cf hood. with less than 10 miles, because you had to.
$25k is a good price, considering it's got 0 miles on it.
let's see...
cf hood is about $1000
seats - $1000 to $2000
wider fenders - $1000 (including paint)
hard top - $1200 (?)
= $5200
$26000 + $5200 = $31,200.

That's the problem with something like this. I can handle a $650 payment for a complete car a lot more easily than I could $6000 cash for repairs, $2000 down payment, then a lower monthly payment.

Even if you could buy the car, with all the items FIXED for 27K, why would you? You can buy a new perfect one all day long for that.
This theft issue seems to be worse than the Integra Type R ever was/is. And especially in Florida.
