Selling my 1979 Volkswagen Scirocco that was an ex-N.A.S.A competition car. I bought and restored it with the intention of attending open track days with the buddies only I really tracked it once and a few times driving around the streets. Don't have time for this thing anymore and will be moving to a small place pretty soon. I've spent a lot of money on it, my loss your gain.

Engine runs good. No it doesn't purr like a BMW but rumbles due to the lumpy cam. This thing is a race car I cant stress that enough so there is drawbacks like stiff suspension, loud engine, and it's a magnet for ricer cars following you around. It runs fine on 93 unleaded but the engine intended for a higher octane and would run at its best with 109 leaded racing fuel. I will be finishing the paperwork to register it as a street legal car(I have connections). It comes with a set of used Avon TechR slicks(225-45-15) as well as other stuff I can't remember right now.

Located in Riverside, CA. Looking to get $5,500 for it. Priced low to sell fast.
I can include a dual-axle car trailer for $500 extra.

Not really looking to trade for other cars but if you have the following I can work with you in lowering the price as a partial trade...

Looking for:
-17" or 18" wheels in 5x120 for BMW E34 offset. RS, Futura, Type A, Hartge, AC, ?
-14" or 15" 3piece wheels in 4x100. in between 7" to 8" wide.
-stock Volvo wagon with auto trans. V70, 850, 940, 740, ?
-powerful pc business laptop or macbook pro
