@greenzgene 4 owners since new based on my research. Not seeing any registration events in the Bay Area. We acquired this vehicle from EuroCar in Costa Mesa, CA. They got it on trade for a Mclaren from a gentleman out of Lake Havasu City, AZ.
Provenance? Number of owners? Was this car ever in the Bay Area?
