Some more Info:

I'll be the first to admit the car is not perfect if it were I'd be asking 55K, but it shows VERY well, and is a very, VERY, nice driver. I know the wheels may be a little extreme and not for everyone, which is why I'm selling the car with the option of any of the wheels we sell. I do have in stock a set of Billet Specialties Rails in polished in 18s and 20s and a set of 18" Foose Chrome wheels too, but any of the wheels Driverz offers can be built as replacements for the red and black Rushforths on it now, including of course other Rushforth Wheels. I'd prefer to either 18's all the way around, or a 19/20 combo as I already have tires in those sizes. I'll leave that up to you.

The paint is fresh, and brand new, and I give it a 8 out of 10. It's not concourse de elegance, but it is very nice. The cut and buff and quality of the paint is awesome. When you see the car, you feel like you could stick your hand in it. I think the photos show that well. All the gaps are very nice, but the trunk could be aligned a little better. Its a little tight on the right side but I'm picky.

The interior is also an 8 out of 10. There is a small 1" tear in the lower part of the rear side panel, close to the carpet, other than that, nice and black. Trunk is nicely carpeted with just the battery and pioneer amp mounted in the back of the trunk. No clutter.

Motor runs strong. Fun to drive, and when you get on it, it goes, I mean goes.

My wife and I love this car, but her hours were cut until she finishes school in April, which is more important, and it has been particularly slow this winter season. We have it up for 37K/obo. We're entertaining all offers, and partial trades. Call me and we can talk more about it. Toll Free at the shop is 866-694-5940. My cell phone is 714-915-5533. Hope to talk to you soon.

Very nice Jon.

BTW, what's the favorite thing you like about the car?


(If you don't get the price you need this time on ebay, perhaps take a little on the road video, or just driving by the camera person a couple times.)
