I estimate that the stripe has been on the car for about 1.5 years and 7k miles, so I would say that your concern is definitely valid.

Here are some shots of the car sans stripe from August 2005:

WOW !!!! What a difference ... I had questions about the combination ... wasn't working for me. Without the stripe, it has a whole different look.

You are right it would be, BUT it kind of came at the wrong time, always when I'm not in the market does such a car/deal come along , who knows maybe I can pull a rabbit out of a hat

Hey guys,

just saw this here. I am the owner of the CS that's listed. Mike ($$$=speed) was the previous owner and the stripe was added while he owned it. It is a factory stripe (bought from RTGT). Contrary to popular belief, the factory stripe is vinyl. The only difference with it pre-installed from the factory is they apply the clear coat on top of the vinyl stripe. For my car. The clear bra is applied over the stripe in the front and waxed so I doubt there is any fading or difference in the paint color. At this point if somebody doesn't buy the car within the next couple days, it will be sold wholesale to a dealer. So if you are even remotely interested PM me and we can discuss. However, no low ball offers will be entertained. Those in the bay area who have seen, sat or even driven my CS knows that it is probably one of the best examples of a CS broken in and running correctly.

Given this information, my guess is it's just a vinyl sticker (non clear-coated) that can be removed.

Good luck with your sale. The car should move quickly at that price.

You can proceed to private message illM3 about your car. Everyone else will continue to peer pressure him into purchasing it.
