Is that a repaint? The paint looks like a metallic, not something I think was

If it’s not a repaint and the mileage is legit it looks like good BaT crack

I drove by this lot last week, the car is still there. It's been there
quite a while. I think they started out a few months ago at $11k, down
to $6k now. It looks pretty nice on a drive-by, I wonder what something
like this would bring on BaT assuming it is in decent shape.
I think it's a reversible motor with a screw shaft rather than a solenoid, so I
think an interruption in the electrical circuit is a more likely cause.
