I watched that as well and was surprised by the price.  Downdraft Webers
(the next biggest rip-off after Pertonix Ignitor units) and very average
paint... while the rear valance paint was quite weathered.  Interior was
visibly worn, and while the seat covers looked good, they were slightly
ruffled because of seriously aged seat foams.  That is about all I had a
chance to scrutinize in the few minutes it was on TV.

Should raise the price of my TR6 now to $20k at least... ;-)
