car is EASILY worth the money. I'd pay it but recetly acquired my 2002 Arctic Silver 96TTwith plenty of nice pieces. would mention that should someone decide to do this in th future, they might do well to start with a Turbo-S or X50 car 2005 year. We'd want the base car to be collectible as well in order to preserve aftermarket value. Such a hot car. mos people do't so something like this unless they want to keep the car forever as they get perhaps 50% of mod, perhaps much less. This is wh we can take the car at $65K aftermarket value, pristine and stock, then take the mods and come out with around $125K. to suggest that this price is 50K high is likely just because it's over budget at that price. I agree, for personal commentary, but if this car can't move @ $100k then someone's got a screw loose. That's the "liquid price" versus th "I have to own this particular car plus I'd do those mods anyway" price... Nice package, nice work, sstems-job not just bolt-ons. Congratulations on a project well accomplished.

Really sharp looking car.
Wish I'd seen this one before I bought my GT2. I would have seriously considered it.
I agree with the comments about the mods - I've looked at several cars with heavy modifications and usually the selling price ends up getting between 25 and 30 percent of what the mod value was. I know it's not a six-speed "type" of car, but I bought a 1999 Lotus Sport 350 with well over $60k of documented (receipts) modifications and paid about $5k over what the fair market price for a 99 Esprit with NO mods was at the time. (Let alone a Sport 350.)
Still, one hell of a nice looking TT - someone will get a fabulous deal.

this was Fred's old car therefore i believe Sharky Alex/James did the first work. when later the car was sold from N.cal to S.cal we fine tuned couple things for the current owner here. car is very street friendly now.
