This cars name is Astral As a collector I have to say this is the one of the nicest coupes I have ever seen and am proud to say its owner. I have been collecting these specific cars for almost a decade and am selling off the entire collection. You may never see a car like this ever again. I am VERY sorry to see it go. In the past I have received a feedback rating of 100% and I take pride in knowing that I am making automotive dreams come true. I will work with you if you need time to organize financing just ask. You can also text / call me with offers or questions at 323-528-3246 I do reserve the right to remove the auction at any time for any reason. Remember Ebay prohibits the removal of an auction within 24 hours of its completion so if you contact me with cash offers please do not wait until the last minute. This car is going up in value every year so chances are you will be able to sell it for more than you bought it for provided you care for it. *7502 total of this car where made and who knows how many have survived especially in this condition with such low mileage IN THIS COLOR COMBINATION.
