Thanks for the thorough report
Prices do not seem to be on the rise... at least not in Indy?

 

[BuickMike]

Those numbers do look a little low. Looks like TTA's are on the rise though.

According to discussions elsewhere, the one TTA was "Pilot #5", and had about 30k miles.
Apparently the owner thought that it being a Pilot car, it would be worth big $$.

well thats what i thought until i looked at it .under hood looked more like 130 and the seat bolster on the rear was worn clear through .just showed alot of signs of much higher mileage .the interior in my 130k GN is much nicer and under the hood for that matter. the quarter panel was a different color also

 

[Mark T-TB]

I'm hoping that one of the more knowledgeable TTA guys will jump in with more/better details? The consensus seemed to be that the guy was dreaming about value.

fwiw, the outer seat bolster on my 56K mile TTA (but, how sure can anyone be ) was worn so badly when I got it that it had something like 5 holes all the way thru... that leather did not hold up well to every-day use (I did have mine patched up, looks great now).

Any specs on the 70 stage car? That's a lot of cash unless it's a 4 speed.

The "pilot #5" TTA was on ebay for awhile and the guy couldn't sell it. So he's either way off on his price, or the car has real issues, maybe no paperwork?
