Speaking of this blue. Can anyone tell what navigation is in this car. It the closest to stock I have seen yet.

[RCSignals]

In the future, to a collector, it does. The original color code is on the data label.
If the job was done well and completely, i.e. no more evidence of DTR, and the seller is honest about it, i see no big problem.
It will never be a 'true' DPB though.

Engine bay is still DTR.

I wonder if they painted behind the doors too?

[BAD MERC]

Steering wheel badge is missing, shifter gate is screwed up and what was SO wrong with the car that it warranted a complete paint job?

[96DiamondVIII]

They appear to be missing the "E" SS insert on the back bumper, also.

A lot of little things wrong (I do wonder if it was wrecked and just didn't show on the carfax), but on the other hand, they do have the only Blue 2004 in existence...not original but kinda neat...

Are the wheels OEM or the chinese knock-offs? They look a little different in the pictures.

I think the replacement airbag explains the new paint. DANGER WILL ROBINSON.

Sounds like they specialize in junk.

That is a good eye you got there...would never of caught that one in the photo

the nav system looks real cheap, like something of ebay or the local market. and since the screen is on the nav, shouldnt the gauges and the AC unit be lit up as well? i cant remember if the ac unit is always lit up when the key is on.

You can press the "Outside Temp" button and the display will go off if the A/C or heat is not on.

. THE NEW PAINT IS NICE BUT NOT AS PERFECT AS THE FACTORY WOULD HAVE DONE IT


Lol i love this selling point:D

[Aren Jay]

Rusty seat bolts.

No gasket around the transmission selector.

Drivers airbag went off? or someone took their godhead off.

Something hanging down from under the dash on passengers side. Might be from the nav install.

How big of an accident did it have? They said it wasn't wrecked. Doesn't mean it wasn't hit.

Front godhead suggests it wasn't hit from/on the front.

Was it flooded?

Why is the grille BLACK ???

[hot-rauder]

Why is the grille BLACK ???

why is the "E" fecal missing from the rear bumper? because it was wrecked.

dont buy a wrecked car without checking it out first, ever! my brother is in the top 100 students in auto collision in the US(#2 in MA) and he did not check out my marauder first. when i came home with mine he instantly said it had been hit in the rear. NO WAY! sure enough when the trunk is popped you can see where they put the new rear quarters on adn the truck lid is plastic... you could never tell unless you are experienced in the field. always take it to a body shop first or bring an employee with you.

oh and after further inspection of the DPB MM, the airbag cover does not match. the bag has probably blown and a new coveer was ordered. airbags deploy with only 10mph of impact... could explain the grill

[Marauder]

Navigation is a ROADVIEW RDM-5. Never heard of them but the install looks clean and OEM.

[PhastPhil]

hmm...the seller ended the auction early because the vehicle is no longer offered for sale...according to E-bay.
Did you guys scare him away? :lol:
