The market has spoken…….
Well worth a lot of money, that’s for sure. Like most rare and unusual cool things, everyone wants it but no one wants to pay for it. A buyer is out there, just not here.

@Drkylestanley There is no brake light, but you could
but it could certainly be implemented.
With a little effort, even taller people can ride it.
are there brake lights? Is there any way a taller person could drive if they put their knee to the side?
@megabotz yes
Could a gas pedal be adapted instead of the throttle?

Here’s an auction result from Paris two years ago for one of the few cars of this type.

And not many more cars will come onto the market, making it already quite a rare collector’s piece.
@Moesupra Hi,
There are no issues at all, and yes, we will take care of the entire shipping process.
Regarding customs duties, we’ve heard that some of them might be dropped around October 14 as they are considered not legally valid.
We are therefore happy to store the car with us until mid-October, giving the buyer the chance to possibly avoid these unnecessary duties.
Since the car is equipped with a gasoline engine, it is classified as hazardous goods, which means it must be shipped via express service—so it will arrive in the U.S. quickly in any case.
Many greetings
@Drkylestanley Hi, People up to about 5 ft 7 in (170 cm) can drive the car

Bid in the amount of $1,005
Can someone 6'1'' drive this car?
Bid in the amount of $980
@Drkylestanley Hi, the power is only regulated via the throttle cable.
Don't worry, it will fly up the hill
@Schilderfee does this mean there is a torque converter on the motor? I’m worried about it making it up my hill which is kinda steep.
Bid in the amount of $600
@Drkylestanley The car weighs around 440 lbs. It’s extremely fast with its current power, but the power can be continuously adjusted directly on the motor.
do you know the approx weight of the car? I'm tring to figure out if the 7.5hp motor and the weight will go up my hill. Thanks

• On request, the Spyder can be customized free of charge in the James Dean design.
