Wow, he has those costly carbon-fiber fenders...

If you buy the car, I'll pay you for any parts you don't want... like that hood or trunk. ^.^

the car looks kinda trashy inside for a car with only 3500 miles. just be careful when buying cars on ebay.

Ebay Evo
If it was still under factory warranty, he would have had the repairs done at the dealer.

This car has been for sale for months now. I remember seeing it a while ago, when i was looking.
I wouldn't trust any included junkyard motor unless i could see/ hear it run. It doesn't take much of an accident to do motor damage, even when it looks fine.

Good luck with it if you choose, my gut is saying bad things about it.

not to mention you won't be able to check out anything else in the drivetrain, since you can't drive it. there could be alot of other problems you'd discover.

No problem, just giving you another point of view. I did something similar, and i found some unforseen problems.
With 370WHP he should have done alot better than 12.9
