Default Christian Rado's Turbo GS4 for sale?

ModifiedCarTrader.Com Ad

I'm not sure if this is against forum rules as I'm not trying to sell the car...

But yeah, is this Christian Rado's ride? I'm just assuming from the email that is posted on the ad...

Wouldn't mind having that as a weekend car

That car has been for sale for a while.. I saw that when looking for my GS last year... At least 6 months it been for sale maybe longer... It looks really nice but 85k is a little steep I'd say maybe between 40 -50k... considering new one's are going for around 50k Good Luck I guess.

TLW and I met Chris Rado in May while we were exhibiting our cars at SEMA IAS in Atlantic City.

Great guy, we had a nice long conversation with him and he was really pleasant.

We checked out his GS up close as he had it there. Most if not all of the work was done by SRT in Maryland.

I guess is adding up the 35k+ he put in his egnine plus the 25k the actual car is worth plus the 10k in mods wait that 70k wheres the extra 15k coming from. thats shipping and handleing j/k..... it is a monster but 85k can get you a lot..

Yeah, Chris is a wildman... that's his GS. He probably has more than 85k in it. I think it spent most of its' life at SRT.

He took me for a ride in his supercharged V8 4Runner last year (right before HIN Los Angeles) - trucks should not go that fast! Everything was fine after I changed my underwear.

Maybe Chris will get it - maybe he won't. There are lots of people with crazy amounts of money to spend on unique cars. I know what Craig Lieberman sold his Supra and Skyline R34 for... Insane! You can buy a decent house in some party of the county for that amount money...

with 85K I can easily built a monster supra with 1000+ HP, or a Porsche 911/SL/Aston Martin?something else.
