Porsche Carrera GT from the film Redline on eBay - 04-25-2007, 05:03 PM

There’s been a lot of controversy surrounding the movie Redline. Who could forget the bizarre Ferrari Enzo crash caught on video with one of the film’s actors, comedian Eddie Griffin, behind the wheel. That car, along with this Porsche Carrera GT, was owned by the movie’s producer Daniel Sadek, a former real estate investor who not only raised $26 million of his own money to finance the film but also kindly donated a few vehicles from his personal collection of supercars. Other exotics starring in the movie include a Saleen S7 Twin Turbo, Koenigsegg CCR, Ford GT, Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster and a Mercedes-McLaren SLR.

The Carrera GT up for sale is in fact one of two such cars that were used in making the movie. Though it’s not the car that gets thrown off a cliff, there are some major problems with the vehicle, which is in need of a new front bumper cover, left front brake rotor, left front wheel, front and rear under trays, rear axle and several other items. The motor can start and revs freely but because of the damaged axle will not drive.

Brand new versions sell for up to $450,000 but interested buyers could get this one for around half that price. The car went up for sale at a previous auction, reaching $254,000, but the highest bidder pulled out without paying. The owner has expressed his feelings in an amusing letter aimed at the dodgy bidder, which you can read by following the jump.
