Sometimes low mileage can actually be a deterrent in a car.
Things like seals and hoses tend to dry out if the car is not started and run on a regular basis.
Moreover the car is an anniversary, and while it has some nice creature comforts such as power windows, seats and climate control, some purists don't like the changes to the body (ie. air intakes) that resulted.

With respect to carbed cars, if I remember correctly ZR Auto in Calgary had a DD car for sale a couple of years back. The one pictured is Fuel Injected.

I think that while the demand for the CT has softened recently due to the downturn in the US economy, the car represents good value.
Remember, the best time to buy stocks, real estate or supercars is when the rest of the herd is leaving market.

Just my thoughts.

Beside the ugly bumper, IME this car has to less miles and is for me a typical Garage Queen.
You can buy it and drive it some times but if you drive this car regularly you will face serious problems with leaking gasket and seals.

just my $0.02

Obviously the car is missing the correct owners manual as well as the service and guarantee booklet. the one on the picture is of the LP400s

true
but the 400S manual is worth more than the anni's (the main reason for this is the featured car is a "very cool guy" 's early S )
you could sell this one, buy the right one and make some $ to

yeah, but a car with only 2700 miles I except to have the original leather pouch with all the correct manuals and booklets, otherwise I wonder if the miles were correct... without the warranty manual with the dealer stamp for the 1000 miles service etc.

correct, such pristine low miles cars should come with all and more


the only thing to do to know more is ask previous owner : Ralf
he is a nice guy, he sold the 25th and bought an older countach
