    2011 is TT for the CL, did you have that one in your E? Both are enjoyable motors either way.
    No mine was the NA spec. Twin Turbo would've been heavenly.
    @DonJuan TT is the moneypit by a mile away.

    The NA spec was bulletproof and easy to maintain. Just couldn't afford the gas to keep it

    Bigger tank and I'd have to fill up every week vs. the S3 is now every 2-2.5 weeks for the same range.

    Buster, is that your infamous Ridgeline? WooWoo!! J/K.

    I was looking at this '14 Escalade from the same sale. Looks like they took apart the dash for some reason but the pieces seem to be in the back. Site says no keys, but key can clearly be seen on the seat. It's definitely at the impound yard

    I've always wanted to play roulette at a impound auction.
    Just a guess, but based on what's torn out, I wonder if this is an Escalade that this was seized by L/E, and that a hidden compartment was in the dash- very popular with the criminal crowd, they frequently have a switch in the center console that is activated by a magnet which can be put on a keychain or hidden in a change holder/whatever. With the typical spot being the passenger airbag/dash area for hiding handguns/drugs, and it as well as the center console being torn out, I'd be concerned that this is the case. Buying an ex criminal vehicle is always high risk, unless you own your own drug sniffing dog that can scan it, otherwise you could be in for a very, very nasty shock at the border or even at a checkstop/pullover if rin-tin-tin is around, if the previous owner had ever left any drugs literally anywhere in the vehicle.

    Otherwise, not a bad price if the Escalade was easily fixable. In 2006 I bought a 2002 Yukon from a mechanic pal who made his $ from buying fixer uppers from auctions/etc, and it was his personal truck he had fixed up. Really, really cheap back then, roughly 2/5 of what they were selling for online (pre kijiji). I actually sold it here IIRC back when the car for sale forum had 2 or 3 pages of current vehicles for sale. Those were the days...

    Whenever I watch Barrett Jackson on TV I get excited and have dreams of one day buying a car from an auction and then based on the kind of auctions we have access to (Regal) that desire goes away real fucking fast.
    Barrett Jackson has more in common with Regal than you think.

    Guy might have bought it and flipping it through regal. Iirc they dont charge you to resell a car you bought from them
