Oh yes, I saw and almost threw up in my mouth a bit when I saw that interior. Who put that guy's brain in a blender?

if you guys say he is wrong, then he must be.
I say he doesnt have more than 3k invested.
How bout the guy on craigslist that told me he is very interested in my turbo, but wants to get the car for close to KBBs 7k value. It has 101k miles you know!!

If KBB says my car is worth 7k then that must be what it is worth, nevermind 1k in exhaust, 16k in receipts, etc. yep its worth 7k, and that guy doesnt have 40k invested in his hybrid.

Well, at least he didn't do this: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/car/346548391.html

He took out the IRS and put a solid axle back there. Wonder what that does to the handling?

The turn-around's aren't that tight at the end of the drag strip, so why worry?

spoiler looks to be a 968TRS wing (or more likely a knockoff of).

It's probably a fun car. I wouldn't pay 10000 for it but it could be fun. I agree that the interior is a little goofy but to each his own.

I'd rather a turbo then that or I would just take my 10grand, build my own LT1 944 and invest whats left over on PROPER other upgrades such as brakes, wheels, and cooling system... maybe even a Remote Turbo.

Again, to each his own.

Saw that ad. Shouldn't the total conversion package with labor come to about $10K so it should be about $15K in all? This guy either is lying or paid way too much in labor / markups.
