Saw this one ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2419991046

Is this your car or is someone using your pics, because the car looks just like yours.

i also think this seller should strip non-oem parts and sell the car stock. U'd make more money that way. Esp the Renntech pulley kit due to the fact of kleeman line going away. and i'm sure the audio/video stuff is universal. strip that sucker to the bone

I wish him the best of luck. But I doubt he'll get anywhere near what he is asking. Remember all the rebates and the deals on these cars. I also don't think he is too serious about it based on the time frame he got listed.
Everybody already knows that the resell value took it in the shorts. And frankly, why pay more for a moded used 4 cyl then you can buy a new 6 cyl.

Guilty as charged.

Yes it's my car, I have to admit i put it up for sale for a kind of rediculous price just because i was not really that desprite for it to sell. So i figured let me ask a price that i will make some money off of and if i get an takers great and if not fine. I love the car but i would just like something faster. If it sells i may lean to a new Z06.

Yes it has the C7 package. If u get some suspension upgrades, and exhaust, clears and a black grille and paint your calipers it may look identical.

My car is leased thats why i would only sell it as is for now. If it sold i would buy it tomarrow and keep the extra cash i made from it. If it does not sell i will sell all parts at the end of the lease.

BTW- I got tons of emails from ebay about people wanting to just buy my pats like the pulley, wheels, system and even my exhaust.

Thanks, like i said, i know its a high price and i dont think its gonna sell since the auction is over soon and no one bid. I will probally put it back on in about a week or 2 if no one buys it.

BTW- its also on DuPont Registrys web site as well.

Oh yeah, if u think my asking price is high, threw my searching to get an idea of what these coupes go for i found a silver coupe with renntech wheels and carbon fiber dash selling for 39k!!!! Mines a steal compared to that.:p

blackC230coupe, yeah, we both have black on black, auto, C5+C7 (I couldnt get C1, i got mine in Nov 2002 so one of the very last '02). Also have pulley kit, clear corners, ITG filter, and even friggin 15mm spacers...coincident??? heheh, would love to see more pics of your stereo setup. If u do end up having to deal with the dealers let me know how kindly they take on the various mods, my motto is as long as I can revert back to stock when lease is up I'm good....or hopefully after 2 yrs the depreciation will even-out that I sell it and pay-off equally.

*After seeing Italian job I want a mini cooper S dammit or a little mid engine roadster or something...

I actually do not have the C5 package.

I never had any problems at my dealer with any of my mods. I have had it there with everything except for the pulley. So i dont think they mind unless there is a problem with the car. MY stereo setup is very very basic, a sub ib a box and an amp mounted on the seat back. I dont care about the looks much for that since i dont see it much, as long as it sounds fine, thats all i care about. If i keep my car till the end if the lease i will have all my mods off so the dealer will never know.
