It's a very nice car and color, but to call it a "steal in this economy" or any economy is really hyperbole. IMHO.

Best of luck with the sale.

It is indeed a "steal." You're just not looking at it from the right perspective.

Based on the compression, cam and heads I'd say the rear wheel HP would be closer to 460 to 480. My all aluminum 496 FE with 10:7 compression, big solid roller, single plan intake, Quick Fuel 850 and Stage 3 heads made 681HP at the crank and 530HP at the wheels. We only ran it a couple times on the chassis dyno on a high humid day and still a bit rich so thinking it's probably got another 20 in it a bit leaner and better day but I doubt his combination would be over 500 at wheels. Pretty car however!

Here's pic of my KC 496 FE....
