Quoted from link...
"This is a base model Z, I bought a base model because I wanted to turbocharge this car. Therefore the traction control is not needed. First of all the bodykit is imported from Portugal, and I am the first one to have it here in the U.S.. As you can see, its been molded on."

lol. Sounds like good times. Who needs traction with all that powa!!!!!!!!!There is also probably a good reason that he's the only one with the body kit.

i love how its a "show car" but there is not one single thing done to the engine bay... not even chrome dressup... oh well... if he actually gets that price good for him, sucks to be whoever buys it for that

ugly car but it definately has some time it it with the molded body kit, new tails, headlight, aluminum dash. He says he is turbo'd but still has the stock airbox? definately not worth the money for 56K miles on the car though

Seems pretty legit to me, he even said there was an owner before that modded it extensively and he bought it for his wife. Scammers wouldnt put VIN numbers either.

And as for that first Z going for 40k, that bumper adds lots of downforce! hahaha

I think it's the Venom Widebody. That kit needs a new paintjob imo otherwise it looks too ricy

That is the guy who bought my Z. I feel really bad for him. The circumstances under which he's having to sell the car are pretty bad, and I hope he gets the buy it now or price or better.

Correct me if I'm wrong Kelly (you can pm me if you want) isn't he asking several grand less then what he bought it for?

well if what he said on the ebay page is any indication as to what is going on, i also feel really bad for him.

It really is unfortunate that he is selling the Z, but karma will catch up with the other guy.

Nah, he's basically recovering the cost of his purchase with the BIN price.

He will get that price no problem I like the guy for offering this:


"Buy It Now Price Includes: The car as described above, the custom seat covers, the additional stock stereo (in case you ever wanted to change it back), the stock hinges, and a $400 allowance towards an airline ticket to pick it up (airport code AEX) or towards your shipping costs (from zip code 71405). Please note that bids under $29,500 will be for the car with the stock stereo professionally re-installed. I have other vehicles in which I can use the outstanding DVD system."


Kelly any chance you could see if he wanted to sell those hinges? door hinges right?
