2001 model, 57k miles. Comptech aftercooled supercharger. Comptech stainless exhaust. should make about 360 hp at the crank.

Fikse FM10 wheels (18", retail about $1000 each). New BFG G-Force KDW2 rubber on the back (255/35R-18). 2/3 worn Potenza S03s up front (225/40R18).

JL Audio 10" sub in trunk, Canton component speakers up front. can't remember model numbers or what amp is pushing them. CD player just quit working...needs to be replaced or repaired (deck seems to work fine, but no sound. prob just a loose connection--it happened when I hit a bump a few days ago).

Mobil 1 oil/filter changes every ~5k miles (factory spec interval is 7k).

Clutch has been replaced (previous owner had it done under warranty, i think around 30k miles, b/c it was making a slight noise. No problems since. He had the valves checked/adjusted, too, even though that doesn't have to be done until 100k+ miles. I have the records for all that stuff. Previous owner was a real stickler...was a rich electrical engineer who worked on satellites.

Pics are in my gallery and car pics folder.

There are a couple of very minor door dings, and the side bolster of the driver's seat has a visible wear (but not cracked or anything). Overall, superb condition.


Price is $24,500.

the only catch is that I live in Pensacola, FL, which is a 10-hour drive from Raleigh. Good side is that I live 5 minutes from the beach, so you can take a FL beach vacation while coming down to pick up a killer sports car.

4/9/2006 2:26:12 AM

oh, and I'd be interested in a trade for a 3-series coupe (5spd) or a TJ Wrangler (6cyl, 5spd).

Also interested in another motorcycle...prob an SV-650, although for the right price I'd be interested in other stuff. Last bike was a GSX-R 750, so I can handle the hot stuff too.

Who knows, I might be interested in a trade for anything halfway interesting. The worst I can say is "no."

4/9/2006 2:29:59 AM

I'll trade you a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, a digital rebel xt and some lenses, and a tama rockstar custom drumset with K custom cymbals.

And my computer and television.

And some dvd's and cd's and stuff.

4/9/2006 3:39:33 AM

Even trade for a '97 Saturn SL2 and a 1986 Yamaha Midnight Maxim

4/9/2006 3:46:36 AM

^ Nah, I got that beat.

97 Saturn SC2 with a busted sunroof and this old sony erricsoon phone I have here on my desk.

4/9/2006 9:17:05 AM

ahaha

4/9/2006 1:14:53 PM

see, you're all so close in some ways...

^^^if you just added the word "EVO" in there...

^^if you just took out the word "even"

^ok, you're not even close.


Oh, and I might do a WRX, too. Don't know if I can get one in my price range (I'd prefer to spend <$12k.)

4/9/2006 1:19:25 PM

post this on carolinahondas.com they will want to hump u to death for it.

4/9/2006 2:08:09 PM

hey Duke, why are you getting rid of the car. Relatively, you just got it.

4/9/2006 3:27:24 PM

Yeah, Don't think you even had this car for a year yet? Btw, is that in milage in Km or actual miles? Might wanna check the button

4/9/2006 4:23:50 PM

^haha, yeah, that is in regular ol' statute miles.

^^I've had it right at 1 year. I'm selling it basically for financial reasons...I have a kid on the way, I need to get more money together for a house downpayment, I'm trying to increase the amount of money I'm putting into investments, etc.

There aren't any curvy roads around here, anyway, and getting big speeding tickets while you're in flight school is not good. Plus, I live about 6 minutes from work, and most of that is spent in my neighborhood and on base. I never really get to drive the car the way I want to.

I'm not gonna replace it with a Buick or anything, and I'll prob get back into the sports car scene with something even meaner eventually (Elise? hot rodded Dodge Razor or Smart Roadster if those hit the market? MR-2 Spyder with a big turbo? Elise? maybe a supercharged E46 M3 once the prices come down? Elise?), but for right now, I'm not really getting my money's worth out of owning it, and there are plenty of other smart things for me to be doing with that much money.

sorry to be off topic but what happened to

"my wife is probably still in kindegarden, and my kid is still a far twinkle in the back of my eye"

not exact words... but it was the greatest line from any post I have ever seen...

4/9/2006 11:06:02 PM

haha, i actually vaguely remember that post, now that you mention that.

if you could find it, that would be awesome. i don't remember what thread or anything.

but all i can say is that i'm not married, and i had a 99.x% chance of being correct about the latter.

mayyyy be interested in swapping out my MR2 for a S2000, i love the S2000 look

we may have to chat sometime in the not so distant future

4/10/2006 1:20:20 AM

How about:

2002 TJ, 55k miles, 6 cyl, 5-speed, hard top with factory tint, soft top, Dana 44, MP3 CD player with MP3 player inputs, 31" BFG Mud Terrains on Black Rock Crawler rims, Bestop Extenda-Trunk, Hella 500's.
+
$4000 cash

4/10/2006 11:58:59 AM

nah, i need to stay around the 8-12k range for the replacement...would kinda defeat the purpose of doing this otherwise

4/10/2006 12:11:50 PM

Eh, I'm drooling, and the Z32 is getting some age on it...

4/10/2006 12:28:46 PM

MR2 Spyders look like retarded pikachus

4/10/2006 12:36:59 PM

by the way, it gets 24-25 mpg both in town (if you don't hammer on it) and on the highway...not bad considering the power it makes.

it also doesn't really feel like a high-strung tuner car. it's as streetable as a Civic, and never gives any trouble.

4/10/2006 5:20:26 PM

bttt

4/12/2006 8:58:18 PM

might as well have all of my classified threads at the top simultaneously

4/14/2006 6:36:57 PM

i have a 04' acura rsx type-s...trade?

4/14/2006 10:23:03 PM

4/14/2006 11:29:26 PM

plus no disrespect or anything but i unless its a brand new car, it will not have 8-12k on a car....haha you kno?

4/14/2006 11:30:57 PM

haha, no, i mean $8000-12000 range.

4/15/2006 12:31:15 AM

4/15/2006 12:54:47 AM

"i dreamed about ur car" jesus christ go hit vtec off a cliff , im the only one that can dream about it .

4/15/2006 3:58:28 AM

4/15/2006 4:11:33 AM

i changed my mind..i got a better offer on ebay

4/15/2006 4:13:21 AM

here's my car on eBay if anyone's interested

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4636898175&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

5/6/2006 9:43:50 PM

I'll give you the Lancer, as previously mentioned


AND


A Canon 30D with 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM.

5/6/2006 9:46:05 PM

nah, i'm trying to get rid of a couple of cameras i don't use, too...haha

although if it was a late model Lancer EVO, then we might be talking.

5/6/2006 9:53:39 PM

^^that is fucking retarded. no one wants that shit for a supercharged s2000.

5/7/2006 12:11:08 AM

ive got a busted s-10, a busted explorer, a busted miata, and a busted van



even trade

5/7/2006 12:17:10 AM

take it now! ^

5/7/2006 12:34:17 AM

What's the reserve?

5/7/2006 2:29:31 AM

23.9k

5/7/2006 5:09:15 PM

I will take it off your hands for free

5/7/2006 5:19:32 PM

bttt

stereo is fixed now


I think I've ruled out Jeeps as a replacement...pretty much settled on an E36 BMW coupe, although an older 911 (or maybe even a Boxster for the right price) could probably tempt me into doing something I know I probably shouldn't.

5/28/2006 12:12:09 AM

how bout a 540i? heh

5/28/2006 12:56:44 AM

Ahmet's?

i'd go for a 6spd 540i for the right price, but I want one with fewer miles than his.

5/28/2006 7:17:53 PM

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4645789629&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT


back up on eBay...couple of days left.

reserve is 23,500. i might would let it go for a little less than that...i'd have to think about it. buy it now is 24,500.

6/5/2006 3:44:50 PM

6/5/2006 4:29:30 PM

dropped the reserve to $23,000 even.

6/5/2006 9:47:37 PM

come on, somebody buy this thing for 23k.

i'll also take a Kawasaki Ultra 150, Suzuki SV-650 (or POSSIBLY another motorcycle), or a 323/325/328is BMW coupe (or POSSIBLY another interesting car for the right price) as a partial trade.

6/29/2006 6:28:11 PM

have you tried putting it up on s2ki.com?
