SOLD


Sup guys,

Found out last week that I'm moving overseas next month, so I'm selling my car, because I'll be gone for at least a year, if not more.

I bought the car with 98k miles at which time the previous owner replaced the timing belt, water pump, etc. The car has 168k now and I've always used Mobil 1 synthetic oil. Last year I had ball joints, tie rod ends and radius arms replaced on both sides. I also replaced both HID bulbs with stock 4300k Philips bulbs earlier this year. The car runs like it has way less miles than it does, which isn't uncommon for our cars. I easily average over 20mpg highway/city driving using 93 octane. Granted I drive like a little girl most of the time. :-)

Here is the good stuff:

-RacingHart rims 19x8.5 front, 19x10 rear with Michelin PS2's around 245-35-19 and 275-30-19.
-Tein Flex coilovers
-Exact RCA's in the front
-Black chrome headlights, cleared out turn signals
-Black chrome grill
-Cleared out factory rear 98-00 tails

The bad:

-Car got keyed around. Luckily the car is silver and unless you are standing close, can't even see the marks, but they are there. Will eventually need a repaint or I guess some Fast and the Furious type decals would work as well. j/k please don't! :-)
-The center console lid needs to be recovered since I always plant my elbow on there and the leather is cracking. $40 replacement covers on Ebay
-The Nakamichi system sounds great and everything works aside from LCD display bleeding when it's cold only. Display shows fine in the summer or once you've had the heat running for a while. Due to that I'm throwing in a Pioneer Avic D3 headunit, which I was going to install, but never got around to.

I also have the stock grill, stock rims and shocks. Also have a pair of 20mm Ichiba spacers that I was going to install since the offsets aren't aggressive.

Price is $7,500 OBO

I'm also willing to discuss trades for something that I could take overseas with me such as iPad, iPhone, etc. So if you had 10 iPad's and some cash we could make it happen. :-)

I work for an airline and would be willing to fly out whoever wants to buy the car or deliver it within a 400 mile radius from Charlotte, NC as long as there is a major airport around.

Thx!

Price is OBO and I might sell the Tein's, wheels and grill separately depending on what I can get for them and sell the car stock.

Anyone interested, just PM me.

Leaving in about 18 days.

Thanks

If anyone just wants the wheels or coilovers feel free to PM me. As it appears that this one potential buyer I have is essentially trying to buy my car without any mods at all.

You'll probably get more money if you sell your mods and wheels separately, because your car stock is worth $6-7K easy

Well, the car was keyed, so I tried to account for that in the price. Figured the mods somewhat compensate for that.

Hate to even be selling the car. Almost decided to take it to Germany with me, but don't really want to go through switching things over to their standards.

Nice talking with you the other day. I'm still interested and my BMW should be sold by the weekend. If the other buyer falls through LMK.
