I had lots of fun building #6228 Mk3 and sold it at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale in January 2011 with 9,000 miles on the odom. The buyer paid $42,900 and I got back the cash I spent building it. He said he owned several car dealerships and a car collection in Austin, TX, and wanted a fun car to drive. He had his "chief mechanic" add a supercharger.
In January 2014, he brought it back to Barrett-Jackson where it sold for about $49.5K. He told me he had lots of fun with it and I think he got his money back also.
Now, after another 4 years, it has been entered in the auction again so it will be interesting to see the sales price as it crosses the block on Wednesday. Here's the listing:

I look forward to seeing my Mk3 again and hope she's been treated nicely.
