Can someone help identify this DW5000?

Hi guys
I found this double DW5000 pedal in a local listing, and was wondering if a more experienced pair of eyes could help me determine the following, by looking at the attached photos:

1. Is it an Accelerator or Turbo?
2. What generation is it? The owner says they bought it new in 2015
3. What does it lack (if anything) compared to the latest generation DW 5000
4. What would you say is a fair price, if in good condition?

Thanks!

Looks like a Turbo to me (although it's hard to see). The sprocket on the Turbo is larger and more symmetrical than the Accelerator.

I'm not aware of any huge changes to these pedals in the last 7 years, so it's about as modern as one you'd buy new. It looks to be in very good condition. New ones go for about $600; used ones in very good shape are between $380 and $500 on Reverb right now.
 
Looks homemade. The secondary pedal has a hoop clamp and beater holder. The double doesnt come like that.

That's not a bad thing. They can be split into singles with relative ease.

I'd jump on this just because of that.

It's not home made. The DW double that I got back in 2001-2002 had the beater holder, hoop clamp, and spring mount on it. They may have gone backwards since then because I haven't used/followed DW pedals since 2003 when I switched to Axis.

Wow it doesnt look that old. I checked the new ones and they dont have that extra stuff.

I bought a set of Eliminators the year they came out and it was all there also, but went away a few years later.
 
Based on the hoop clamp, I think it might be the 2nd latest version. The newest one has a pivot toe clamp or some other funny name.
