The current high bidder has this in his eBay feedback:

WARNING: DO NOT SELL or BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS PERSON (NON-PAYING BIDDER!!)
Should be interesting, I'm gonna watch this auction...

LOL, sounds like a major troll who may actually be doing some good for once.

Keep in mind that the car is nos ready, not nos equipped (it has run on nos before). Also keep in mind that though the car will start it can't be put on the road until the apex seal is replaced.
Hehehe, putting 2 and 2 together, I guess we know what happened to the apex seal.

BTW, what in the heck is a "transmission rotor"?

It has a two-stage titanium rotor booster system and it could be used to haul carrots (though no carrots are included). It has a rust'em exhaust system and tires. It flew to Jupiter is 10.2 minutes. We beat the **** out of the car and damaged it severely, so we'd like to sell it now."

It sounds like the seller is really a parent of the owner and knows nothing about the car. There are probably some "telephone game" translations in the description. The kid probably doesn't know **** either, and doesn't have the verbal skills to express himself clearly anyway.

There's an edit that makes no sense:

Also keep in mind that though the car will start it can't be put on the road until the apex seal is replaced.

Sure it does, it means that you can start it (and he no doubt did), but you'll be replacing a lot more **** than if you would have just left it.

maybe it'll run on NAWZ if you give it a big enought shot to overcome the blowby of the blown apex seal?

He did say it ran on nos before.... ****, my blown engine ran fine the last time I drove it too...
