the pink full-race car we talked about a few days ago.....
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...ayphotohosting

long story short, the team who won it put it on ebay. It went for $6,200 :o

-this is also the car that crammed 28psi through stock sleeves. and it held.

I doubt it will hold up too long if it went on street duty

its going to be a non-paying bidder. I mean look how the bidding stopped after they said they didn't have the title. And I'm pretty sure it has a salvage title

doesn't that go against the whole idea of "pinks"? Um pinks is derived from pink slip which is aka the TITLE! That is soooo retarded. :3

It takes time to transfer a title. And since the show takes the title before you even race it takes time to change hands that many times. They just put it on Ebay too fast. They should have waited to get the title and the show to air to sell it

They did give the VIN number.
Simple carfax will do the trick.

the car was stolen striped and then left at full race by ex-employe(who got it back) so I dont think they even had the title. :P

In either case, I'm sure I could sell the turbo kit alone to some ricer for $6k.

accually, its not like that. As I mentioned in the other thread, a guy who is on our local forum (who is no longer local) was on the other team (the rx7 team)

I asked the same thing to him, and he said, nope. You bring your titles. At the end of the night, you sign it over. Pinks never touches the titles. You just have to prove that there is no Lein on the title. They trailered the car home that night.

You have to mail them the title before you go.

why'd it go for so low, i remember that first "Pimp My Ride" civic went for like 40K, simply because it was a ricebucket and it was on TV :1

this is actually a FAST civic, and will be on TV

I bet that was a blast! So just curious, is it really pinks that are handed over, is it for real....or just a "i got your pink'' kinda thing? -or just bragging rights?

they dont use time slips or even time the runs. Its all visual.
And yes, as soon as we won the third race they had to hand the car over. We took it to our area and started stripping the vinyl and putting our own on it for the photo shoot that followed.

Instead of going on internet hearsay here you go: http://www.pinks.tv/casting.php

"Are you willing to sign the title to your car over to the producers of Pinks before the race?"

"Racers MUST put up their titles to be on the show. PINKS will control the titles and award them ON CAMERA to the winner at the end of the competition"

P.S. Your a douchebag Frank

50 bucks says they bid on it with a no feedback account so they could sell it for more.

I don't know why anyone would buy that, it was thrown together in a weekend. Plus Full Race changed it up and had people on their staff trying new things (people fabricating that normally don't do fabrication on a regular work day there, etc)

yea; selling it now is just dumb; no one outside of the pay to play honda-tech world has heard of this car.

if they would have waited until the show aird and put it up the next week it would have gone for like $20k to some moron ricer who bid on the fast and the furious cars :1

they probably took it out for some rippers and there was a problem so they figured lets sell it before we mess it up more
