Sounds like a helluva deal, but at the same time, I have to apply the "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" method to this one.

Starting bid is $40,000, yes, but in the write up he says he'll take $5,500.

looks like he ripped the description from a website, and pictures.. then threw in his two cents about it.. aka.. Cobalt SS TURBO.. i would be very hesitant to buy this.
