I was watching Barrett Jackson yesterday, the usual stuff, til the last car. A black 3 rotor fd3 with stripes down the middle. It went for like 48K. Anyone here???

 

I think thats Petit's car

 

Wow, 48k. Isn't there a buyer's premium tacked on to that too? Another 5 or 10%

 

ah yes rich people and their money in action.

"and wait for the DMV to tack on the registration fees, tax and license".

yeah 8% auction fee. Car went for 48500

 

Was it their Banzai car with the fender flares?

 

it was the banzai car.... i remeber see that like 6 months ago

 

i saw that it was some old guy that bought it too. 500 Hp 3 rotor banzai 3rd gen. Beautiful car. Old people and thier money, it was weird seeing that car on barret jackson though

 

yeah that car is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fast, oh and it stops just as fast

 

It's Cam Worth's car, the owner of Pettit Racing. "Stock" Banzai setup with a nice interior. No flares on it. Funny hearing them talk about cars for the "Fast and the Furious" crowd. I've actually printed out the sales info from the BJ website so I can show the insurance guys a comp for my car. One of 12 3 rotors built by Pettit.

 

This was on a while back...I Tivo'd it and put it on DVD.

 

acutally i bet that car has more than what it sold for in it.

 

anyone have a picture of it?

 

Yeah that was a rerun

 

nevermind i found some..

Nice find on that video. He called that car "of the fast and furious movement"

 

Yes, they we "one offs". I tried to buy a pair while I was at Pettit but the guy that made them didn't want to make a second pair. It was kind of cool as Pettit also made a top mat that velcroed to the bottom mat. The top mat had a clear plastic insert in it that allowed you to see the rotor symbol.

 

Here are some shots of the custom floor mats:




The mats were okay in quality. Group buy anyone? It would be cool to get some high quality mats with the rotor symbol on them. I'd be in.

 

+1, nice find on the vid!

 

nice video, sweet car. the guy who won it dont really seem that happy lol.

 

whoa, i never imagined that it could go 200mph!
