    ^^^ I think in may be #749, but not 100% sure.
    I think it is a US spec Roadster now in Europe...
    I had some note that #745 may have also been spotted with the same wrap.

    By the way, notice the fault on the VDS above...
    "DMC FW Line Voltage Lost Sync or UnderFrequency fault"

    The color was apparently called “Tag Heuer Midnight Pendulum Gray” and was a custom paint job made for that purpose.

    @TEG - 745 is a Sterling Silver 2.0 Sport.

    On a side note - that gauge cluster is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. I want one.

    Here is a gem from my secret stash:
    P0749-5YJRE1A32A1000749-tag.jpg
    (note the VIN plate visible)

    [You have no idea how many pix of that car I had looked through before finding that one... It was another of those 'patience is rewarded' situations...]

    I think maybe: Pristine example with 3.0 battery upgrade going to auction with a lot of build up, so expectation is high $ bidding...

    Sure sounds like there is more to 1176 than this...
