Available for auction is a stunning Auto Union-style pedal car, limited to just 999 produced by Audi to honor the legendary Type C “Silver Arrow” Grand Prix car of the 1930s. Built in 2008 by Audi Quattro GmbH and unveiled as a prototype at the 2006 Paris Motor Show, this meticulously crafted 1:2 scale model is constructed from approximately 900 components. 
The aluminum body is finished in silver over a tubular spaceframe and features custom wire-spoke wheels with knock-off Audi-logo spinners, pneumatic tires, faux drum brakes, and a chain drive connected to a seven-speed internal geared hub. 
Other highlights include dual inboard rear disc brakes, #5 race livery, Nürburgring decals, brown leather tie-down straps, and faux side exhausts. 
The cockpit is equipped with a brown leather seat, oak dash with Audi-branded faux gauges, a gear shift lever, and a quick-release four-spoke steering wheel. Measuring roughly 80” in length, 38” wide, and 24” tall. A remarkable collector’s item that pays tribute to Audi’s rich motorsport heritage.

@Stevemullaney What you say is correct, and thank you for this information. If the buyer is in the same country as you, for example in Europe, the costs would be reduced. I have two of these cars and I faced different costs to purchase them.
@LPCommerce33 as I stated I’m a person of interest as well. You have given no help with any information and don’t want anything to do with shipping in any way but standard communicating. So I’m helping fellow bidders that might not be so savvy or experienced with this type of an overseas transaction and especially with the tariffs now. I apologize if I have somehow often you but information is the key to success. The last thing you want is for the winner to find out the extra expenditures and back out. Just trying to help sorry again for meddling in
@Stevemullaney If you think it's too much, you can find some other model on sale, maybe closer to you so you can save some money.
So I looked into crating it and shipping with insurance and then talked to a broker about the tariffs. He explained 10% for sure but the cost of the kart $20000 and you can get away with it because of the insurance you would have on it so the breakdown is
$20,500 kart
$2050 Pcars 10% non-vehicle
$4278 crating/shipping/insurance
$2000-$4000 Tariff 10-20%
$29,828 TOTAL
Just putting out the information that is on everyone’s mind. For people who like to argue put your numbers up then complain about my ESTIMATE. I’m just as interested in purchasing it as you are

Fly to Italy and go there and crate it and ship it then fly home. Then sell it here in the US. Free vacation. So there are 999 more out there? Amazing.

@SignsbyJMHarley I don't deal with these things, if you contact a courier from your country they will be able to do the packing and shipping
Are you able to make a crate for shipping. I'ts going to be hard for you to sell this in USA if are not able to help in shipping. Me being here and you there you would know the best way as I don't live in Italy.
@SignsbyJMHarley The buyer is responsible for shipping. I remain available for collaboration, but the buyer must organize everything.
What would be the shipping to USA zip code 80236. Also what is the weight.
Thanks
