Are you asking if someone knows the car? I don't, just trying to help.

Oh, yeah that one that's usually cruising around downtown Chugiak! LOL!

That's so awesome! And I love that someone is cruising around Alaska with 127,000 miles on it! How bad *** is that? No garage queen there!

Check out what he has done with it! That is strong!

I purchased this vehicle in 2000 from seller, second owner, in Cincinnati, Ohio for $85,000 with 28,000 miles on the odometer. Cincinnati owner purchased the car from original owner, in Connecticut. The car was originally purchased from Peconic Bay Motors in Riverhead Long Island in 1996. From 2000 to 2002 the car was kept in San Francisco. In 2002 I moved to the Anchorage area with the car. Between 2004 and 2006 I upgraded the turbos from the stock K16 to K24, added strut tower and Fabspeed exhaust mufflers and catbypass, original catconverters cores were removed, no emission testing required for seasonal driving May to end of October in Alaska. In 2007 upgraded suspension 12 way adjustable Cross coilovers. In July/August 2008 with 100,000 miles I had the engine rebuilt. I purchased engine performance rebuild kit from FVD Brombacher located in Pompano Beach, Florida. The Rebuild kit included but was not limited to 3.8 Mahle pistons and cylinders, left and right sport camshafts with hydraulic lifters, Carrillo connecting rods, sport clutch with lightweight flywheel and software DME update. The rebuilder of the engine used Raceware studs and all other parts valves spring, retainers etc. meet or exceeded the quality of the original parts. The FVD rebuild package cost me approximately $16,000.00. The rebuild with other parts and labor cost me $17,098.00. In 2010 installed BBS wheels (original turbo twist wheels will be included if wanted) In 2012 the transmission was shipped to German Transaxle and the transmission was rebuilt. The cost of the rebuild was approximately $8,000.00.

You have to buy a cat if the state you live in requires it for emissions. That is a few Gs. Door strap quality repair is $800. Interior is probably $1K for quality used replacement. AC will be suspect as it probably has not run up in Alaska for sometime. Transport will not be cheap bring it back down. Perhaps it would make a great Vancouver area import car.

Bills are adding up and the dark gray interior is not as desirable as black in a Blk car.

That said, I am interested in the price which it will sell for.

I know, I am drooling ! Seller says he had a buyer via Ebay but the NorthEast buyee got cold feet and left the seller with the car as it was being loaded for shipment.
