I'm located in RI and the car is in CT. It's my toy car. She makes the 300mile roundtrip RI/CT/RI all the time. I have a poop load invested in this car and now that I'm back to a career, its time to step up my game. I have owned this car for 4yrs and done tons of work documented in my build thread.

I have a folder FILLED with receipts(90% of items) totalling $12000. This does not include the car, the time and things like tuning.

I AM IN NO RUSH TO SELL THIS!!! I get CONSTANT local offers but when its time to exchange money, no one can make good on their deal! I'm asking $8500 PRICE DROP TO $7900 which is a steal for what you are getting. I am 100% confident this car can be driven ANYWHERE in the conutry without a hiccup! I also will entertain offers with some parts removed to reduce cost....

She does have some small body items that if the car is kept, will be addressed in the spring.
-2 small rust spots around windshield quarter and dime size
-Rear quarter infront of the p/s taillight has a smal scrap/dent

I would love to take this car off your hands! However, I'm not due to come back to the states until this fall. If it's still for sale then, remember me, lol!

^^^^ No deposit yet! I've had ALOT of interest with the weather change.

I had our dent guy at our dealership do $350(retail /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif ) worth of work yesterday. He messaged out the D/S rear door crease and a couple of little door dings!

Spring time BUMP!

I swear I'll never own another DSM or GVR4, but your car is so tempting. You seem like the type of person you really want to buy a car from.

Thanks for the kind words. I AM a neurotic, nut case! I just want something with a warranty so I can throw the keys to one of my techs and say " FIX THIS!" Used GT500 or new Coyote..... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

i here you... new car warranty is the way to go. I know i am going to get flamed for this but i was considering the new turbo kia optima or the hyundai genesis for a toy car, with warranty of course. so much easier to just fill it up and do proper maintenance. they don't look half bad nowadays either.
