    That is indeed an M42.

            1+ on everything. I hate red so much. Both are SUPER clean and nice looking.

            I looked but how much are they? Could not find anything from the links, and don't feel like searching.

              Is that bronzit or silber some pics look more silber than bronzit to me. Where is the damage on the salvaged car? It looks okay in the pics. If the repair was done properly the salvage titled car could be a decent deal since it cannot be sold for full price, also it is a coupe which I would personally prefer. It does have some rust in one of the pics though, although it appears that the red car does too.
