RENNtech CL65 F/S C/F interior!!!

I think the lighter c/f looks good with the Ash interior....although I prefer the charcoal interior. This car has the RENNtech C/F airboxes which you don't see too often on a resale.

VERY NICE CAR.... I watched it go through auction

I sat in it and looked it over......the interior is very cool but up close is a bit tacky at the same time....I was going to buy it but the price went north of
$55k where i would of liked to of been so I backed out........the $79k asking is close to $20k markup...basically it is a $55k car with $7500 in mods....

Thumbs up AMG055

Absolutely stunning. Why would you consider any other vehicle over this one (except for a Ferrari, and even then I would be tempted)?

The RENNtech ECU/TCU and Airbox costs $11K. The c/f interior is probably $5K+.

I don't know, I haven't looked recently but the last time I checked a lot of higher price/higher quality 600/65 auctions on eBay had the RENNtech air boxes on them. Note that most of those cars were from Florida also.

better then that

the airbox you can get used if you look for $1500 and the tune is offered by Kleeman for $3000 with the Tranny ... and the CARBON FIBER is a $1500 setup through a few retailers.....

^ I'd love to find a used airbox for sale. All the other stuff you're totally right about. No need to pay RENNtech's outrageous prices...

Right now on ebay there are 12 RENNtech V12TT's for sale. Of which 3 have the C/F airboxes (and as you mentioned they are all in FL). Only one of those 3 is a 65. I didn't realize that a good number of 600's are running around with the C/F airboxes.
