Condition 

9

While the description indicates a 'complete ground-up build with no expense spared' and only 400 miles since completion, the car is a recreation, not an original. This impacts the condition assessment as it's a newly built vehicle styled as a classic, rather than a preserved original. Given the description of a 'stunning bright red' finish and 'lavish tan interior trimmed out in 24k gold,' along with modern upgrades like rack & pinion steering and a CD sound system, the car likely presents in near-perfect condition.
