Default Aristo TT - worth it?

Hi,

I can buy an Aristo twin turbo. Complete car with cosmetic damage. Car is full stock with 100k miles. (Silver on black no leather)
Priced less than 2000 euro.

Is it worth it (assuming the engine is running fine)?

How hard would the swap be? Will I be able to swap the whole drivetrain?

Thanks!

JZS body?

Thats what $2700? Most GTE/GTTE VVTI motors cost that alone when all is said and done so I'd say yes, go for it.

Yes, totally worth it if that's the proper exchange rating. You'll get everything you need, and you can part out what's left.

DO IT>
