My favourite car, although who can tell if this one is in good nick or a write-off!
This has been on AT for at least a week.
I checked the (franchised) dealer's website and it has the same pictures on.

That level of bad takes some skill.
On a slightly related topic, I saw on Twitter a guy looking for a GT86 had found a decent looking car on Autotrader but did an MOT check and it had a lot of fault remarks. He looked on Streetview and the same car had been barried to within an inch of its life with dropped suspension, daft wheels, the lot, which had been removed for sale. It's not something that's worried me in the past but I'd be concerned with a 370Z.

I never thought of that.
There are some spectacularly barried 350 and 370s out there but they're usually sold on in that state because it's part of the JDM/drifting scene, they've usually got a fairly sudden paint scheme or wrap on as well.
