What do you guys think
First, the car is an 07...which I believe was built during a month that you need for importing...so that's good.

However, they are asking $116K? Seems very high. Especially if you are going to send it to SPI to modify...which means you'll probably toss the header, exhaust, and intake. So you are paying essentially for stuff you won't be using. You may recover some by selling the stuff aftermarket, but sometimes it is a pain to do so.

Also...they state "Over $200,000 was invested to create this remarkable vehicle." This is probably BS. With an original sticker at about $150K, they are claiming over $50K in mods? I don't see it.

Techart pieces, paint and install...Exhaust, intake, headers. Wheels. Ipod + Sat Radio. That's it. $50K? BS.

Bobby --The wheels at 11K seem high but the rest sounds about right with installation fees . Time is money too .

Rus--
The car looks nice --but I would never buy a used Turbo unless I knew the owner and/or car history to the exact letter.

They all look pretty on the used car photos .
