http://www.cardomain.com/ride/55676593 pearl white VR4 90K Southern car (no rust) Few mods (intake, exhaust, stereo, EBC...) 18" VR4 chromies Some assembly required... Kind of a funny story behind this car. Got it from Mike (Audible Silence) on 3si. He braught it to Hans to get some work done. The transfer case either siezed or grendaded on a launch, don't remember... I checked it out while I was out there a couple weeks ago. The car is in outstanding shape. Interior is new, fresh paint job (the car was in a front end collision at some point), and new tranny... At any rate, it also needed a tune up and a few other things. Well $$ fell short and Mike eventually lost intrest. This is of corse, after Hans does most of the work to the car. So, Hans needs it gone, Mike needs $$, and I need a car, so I made a rediculously low offer on it to Mike. Without too much thought, he jumped on my offer! I couldn't believe it. It just needs a new t-case, a new alternator, and some reassembly. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. Maybe take the mods & chromies off and resell the car with stock stuff put back on or maybe keep it the way it is and just drive it around. It's in too nice of shape to be a "winter beater". We'll see...

Hmm maybe its time to swap out all of the parts out of mine into a car without dents....
Oh by the way are you going out there to pick it up? Maybe you can get my damn $600 bumper from Faust while you are out there.

Leave negative feedback on 3si for him. Make a thread in the buyer/seller forum too.

Just a little update. Finished this car about a week ago and the owner came and drove it. I should have paid him and gotten the title before doing that as he "fell back in love" with the car and wanted to keep it...  Oh well... At least I got my deposit back and he wants me to install a few things on the car for him. So that's even more $$ in my pocket instead of being dumped into another car I don't need...

Heh, sorry to hear Greg. You could of made that car your beater and sold your SL on the cheap  But then again, one of these cars is expensive enough to take care of, let alone owning two or three of them. Jason
