SOLD
I'm really sad to do it, but I am doing what I need to do at this point. I bought this car in August very similar to how it now is. When I bought it, it had 89k miles on it and I put 7k miles on the car and changed the oil 3 times. I am the third owner of the car and I bought it from PA where the car was garage kept by both of the previous owners. I kept the car inside 80% of the time and have a stack of maintenance records from when the car was under warranty and afterwards too. In the short time I have owned the car I have been lucky enough to not have any need any maintenance work. I did however replace both rear lcas under 100 miles ago because I felt the bushings were weak so I just replaced it all. This car pulls very hard and has a noise free S52. Everything on this car works except for the few things I will outline below. I'm selling this car for personal reasons, the main reason is the fact that I can't be happy with a street car because I keep trying to make it a track car, then I **** it because it is too unrefined. So I have decided the only way to meet my needs is to purchase a dedicated track/fun car, and also purchase a DD. The other thing is I have found the car I want and would like the car sold in the next week or so. Looking for a quick sale to get the new owner in the car, and get me into my new car.;)

Underneath the black lip spoiler there are scratches from the previous owner trying to remove it with dental floss. To remove them, the trunk would need to be repainted, I like the spoiler anyhow.

Another shot of the fender, could probably be pulled fairly easily or fenders are cheap for these cars and you could just replace the whole thing

The sunroof shade slid forward at an autocross once and I noticed the cloth started to come unglued. So I pushed the shade back and forgot about it. In 15 minutes you could get some fabric glue and have it fixed. Sunroof is fully functional.

As you can see, I am being very honest and trying to represent the car as accurately as I can and hide nothing. I want the next owner to enjoy this car as much as I did. The issues with this car could be fixed fairly cheap. I would like this car sold soon so I will entertain offers. Time is of the essence so a quick deal is an incentive for me.
Alright here is the deal. The first person to bring me $8,000 cash takes the car. I WILL NOT TAKE LESS

P.S. This is the only time this car has ever seen snow. I have been out of town and intended to get the car up for sale while I was gone. I drove the car to the gas station a few miles from my house as the snow began to fall and then took the car back home and covered it up.
