Autotrader find
Just came across this, for anyone in the market.

Looks decent enough but only a thorough inspection and drive would verify.

Hmmm...Narrow body, with Euro Turbo bumper, Turbo S wing and what
appears to be wide-body offset twists....For 28K; I'm sure you could find a
nicer unmolested example for similar money. This one looks like it's been
"touched" in a bad place in a bad way..haha
Great colour though!

Doesn't look molested to me unless Im missing something. Front TT bumper (that is a good thing IMHO as long as it was painted properly), Rear aerokit/turbo s wing...not my favorite but not bad, Coilovers (probably Pss9/10) another good thing. sub 100k miles, red brakes (hopefully actual big reds) another good thing. Good color. As long as a PPi is good, paintwork good clean carfax what is the problem?

I think it looks like something someone on here would do. Those twists don't look like WB to me. I think it's got an agressive allignment. But it might just be distortion from the camera.

The wheels are aftermarket/replicas hence the slightly different look (they are ever so slightly more aggressive than the OEM versions.....I like. Only minus is no hollow spokes). Looks like a decent deal if PPI checks out. Curious as to exactly what suspension is on it, as others have said this could be a BIG bonus (coil overs aren't cheap).
Personally, I'd swap the wing for a more subtle RS wing (or Ducktail). As the car already has a Euro Turbo front bumper, a rear spoiler of some sort looks great to "balance" the slightly heavier look of the front.

Just checked their website for more pics. Car definitely needs some TLC as the drivers seat has a substantial tear in it. Has Fabspeed tips, RS door cards and shifter boot/**** and some other stuff.
Might be a good candidate for an interior redo with Pole Positions etc. if someone is looking to go this direction, could be a good find. Probably be able to negotiate a better price too. As always, PPI will give a potential buyer the tools needed to make an informed decision.

Just visited the website to look at the extra pics of the vehicle. It's very rough and the deal breaker for me would be the engine bay. It appears to be missing the rear blower. Who knows what else has been messed with. Too bad, I love the color combo.

Just curious - if it's a 96, it doesn't appear to have the high mounted 3rd brake light above the rear window. Perhaps the tail is a factory option, hence the 3rd brake light mounted?
