Selling my Midnight Blue '02 6-speed

The car is stock except for a short shift kit and clear side markers. I bought it with 14.2k miles, I installed a UMW stage 2 kit at 16k miles, and then pulled the kit off at 19k miles. The car has never been open tracked, but I did take it to the drag strip once. I experienced a lot of wheel hop on the first trip down the strip, so I cut the day short. The odo reads 19.5k today.

I've posted a pic of the window sticker so you can see exactly what options are on the car. The Pirellis have about 1/2 of the original tread, and the brake pads have plenty of meat left. I didn't see them new, so I'm not sure what percent of the original thickness is left. I put in Castrol SFR fluid last summer thinking I would track the car. I changed the oil as soon as I got the car, then changed it once mid summer, and will change it again before selling, so figure no more than 3k miles per change. I've been using the recommended Mobil 1 0W40 and factory filters.

The Midnight Blue / Cinnamon Brown color combination is quite rare - I've never seen another one like it. Both colors are extra cost options. The interior color reminds me of the Ferraris I looked at before settling on the Pcar. No way I was going to get an Fcar without tan leather! It's not a high tech look, instead I think it's very elegant. And the leather still smells new. I'll miss that smell! Just about every interior surface is covered with leather except for the headliner and carpet. Because it is a rare combo, and the car is in excellent condition, I'm asking $68k. PM if interested.

Enough jabber, here are some pics. The first two, taken by the original owner (I am owner #2), show the car in stock condition, the second two show it with the now-sold HREs, Bilsteins, and UMW exhaust. The clear side markers are still there. The last two are a scan of the window sticker.








Thanks for looking!

Jeff

I'm guessing you missed my "UMW exhaust for sale thread". The lack of pretty tips for that system (seen in the bottom car pic) generated a lot of chatter here. The UWM exhaust is sold. The car will be sold with the original factory exhaust complete with tips as shown in the second from the top pic (but they will be cleaner)

Just a thought but perhaps place this in the FOR SALE section of the forum.

All my interior pics suck, so I wanted to wait till I took a good one to post. But it looks like the NorCal monsoons will continue through tomorrow, killing any chance of a nice new pic. So here's one taken by my alter ego, Otto Focus. Please keep in mind that this was shot with fluorescent light, so the color isn't accurate.

Amazingly, it stopped raining today, so I snapped an interior pic with natural light. Please forgive the dirty paint - it's been raining daily for about 2 weeks here.

Looks like a nice car, GL with the sale as the market is pretty tough right now. Still a decent price for a low mile x50 car, good buy for somebody.

I've always liked the sound and freight train torque of a big V8, so that's up next.
