RS600 for sale in Minneapolis :)

**The RS6** · February 13th, 2010, 07:07

Hello, came upon this article, thought some of you Americans may be interested...

Six of jailed money manager Trevor Cook’s cars, which will be up for auction Saturday in downtown Minneapolis, surrounded Matt Rabanus of Classic Auto Storage. Most are high-mileage, relatively low-value cars. But the one in the front right is the real prize of the bunch, a highly modified Audi screamer that Cook bought from a financial expert in Switzerland. It’s expected to fetch more than $30,000.

Among Trevor Cook's cars up for auction is a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing Audi RS600 sedan that does 200 mph.

This car sold for 45k. There were 3 of us RS6 owners there to check out the car. Most of the folks there were just looking.

Edit: Nevermind got it figured out.

Jason,

We were keeping this thread at the bottom of the page to keep everyone out.

I was ready to go 50k if needed but the vin closed the deal.

NO VIN=NO LICENSE PLATES.

Marshal title only gives ownership of the asset. Serial number stamped on inner fender only gives asset status. No way could you title and license this car in the US.

Inside information says the state of MN revoked the title and plates to this car.

DOA as far as I was concerned. Parts car only.

I would like the seats and wheels for starters. Floor mats were kind of cool. The stearing wheel and bling -- forget about it.

Plus the "My other car is a Fieroborghini." bumpersticker never would have come off without leaving residue.

Seriously, the guy had a bunch of hoopties, including, yes, a fiero with a lambo kit body in his "collection."

At least this (untitleable) rarity will never be pawed on by that ponzi-scheming toolbag again.

Were you one of the other RS6 owners at the auction?

Too bad Dave, would have been an interesting one if legal.

So who bought it?

**DHall1** · February 14th, 2010, 03:45

A dirt bad with a greasy t shirt and sweat pants.

We think it was a inside job. The auction staff are hiding something. I think they internally purchased the car and have already flipped it to europe.

Nope. I saw that original post and, like you, got bug eyes. Did some fast recon and the whole thing seemed too sketchy. Car doesn't exist in any US DMV database, sneaked in as freight or something.

Dave, take a look over at MNAudi, they have pictures of the guy, they're out for blood.

Post! Post! Post! Post!

**DHall1** · February 14th, 2010, 06:48

You have no idea how much work Pat put into this project.

This just sucks and if I were there in MN....it would be ugly.
