Indiana Dealership Is Selling A Nascar Toyota Camry Driven By Michael Waltrip
It's not every day that you see a legitimate NASCAR racer hit the used car market, but that's exactly what we have here.
This 2010 NASCAR Camry was formerly raced by Michael Waltrip and has been listed through a Toyota dealership in the small Indiana town of Warsaw. It has an asking price of $59,999, which sounds quite reasonable for a proper race car with some racing heritage.
Very few details are provided about the vehicle on the Facebook Marketplace listing, such as what races the car competed in. Nevertheless, it says that the TRD V8 engine is still operational and that the car can be driven. Of course, it isn’t street legal and could only be used during private track day events.

As you’ll notice, the car wears the number 55 and a little bit of research reveals Waltrip started racing his number 55 car in 2006 and completed his first full season with the car in 2007 but had a dismal year, at one stage failing to qualify for 11 consecutive races.
The number 55 car continued to complete during 2008 and 2009. However, it is difficult to know just how many number 55 cars the team went through during those seasons or how many races this one has under its belt.
In any case, the Marketplace photos show the car has retained its original racing livery and is sitting on the dealership floor on a set of car jacks. NASCAR racers are not the faint-hearted, though, so if someone purchases it with the intention of driving it, they better bear that in mind before taking to the track.
