Anyone looking for a fun winter car or DD beater?

Saw this up for sale today was $3250, currently OBO.

This car is ready to rock. Come take the keys and drive it away. It is currently running E85, but I have a map still saved from when I had it on pump gas. So it would take just a little bit to get the pump gas worked back into it and drive it across the country.

The car has 156,876 miles on it. I have put less than 3000 miles on it in the year I have owned it. And all the turbo related part were installed less than 700 miles ago.

With the money from this sale I can pay off the last of my debt, so it is a no brainer as I have been working towards that for 11 years now. The car does have hail damage being an original Texas car. The roof does have some rust spots on it but do not leak. At one point in time something was ran over and a small piece of the rear bumper cover was broke off. This happened before I owned it.

We also rebuilt the transmission to factory specs with Transtar parts and a few hard part from a local supplier. This car is an automatic transmission car. It does have the blue wire mod done to it and is set to work off a relay activated by the ECU from the fuel pressure solenoid pin in the ecu.

The car has new GR2 struts that were installed in january 2011. It also had new sway bar bushings installed then as well. It has a radio/cd player from walmart in it that was installed earlier this year. There are stains on the interior and the front seats do have some seams that have come apart.

Needless to say the car is all go, no show. But it is reliable and I have not had any issues in that department. We were tracking down an unrelated issue and replaced the head gasket near the first of november. I can go on and on, but just know this car while not the best looking is ready to drive away and have fun.

Mods-
Stock N/A 4G61 9.2:1 1.6L engine

The car was on the dyno a few weeks ago and made 200hp/205tq at altitude. The corrected numbers were 243hp/248tq. Boost is set at 20-21psi.

Listing the car at $3250obo

This is a steal. A little ugly, but fast as hell and reliable.
