Default [FS]: 2002 C4S, Orient Red - Houston

Short story: the car is mint, I had no intentions of selling it - but a new house may make more sense, for now, than a car that I don't daily drive anymore and sits in the garage. I'm dropping this post to gauge interest. I don't want to go on and on about the car in this post, but will gladly elaborate to any interested party.

I'd rate the car in 95%+ condition.




Details:
2002 Carrera 4S
55K miles
Orient Red exterior
Graphite Gray interior
Advanced technic package
Bose sound
CD changer
Painted Center console (Orient Red)
Alcantara shift ****, ebrake, bin cover
Almost new Litronics (old plastic was scratched)
B&M SSK
Tubi Exhaust (amazing sound, no drone)
x51 oil pan (new in the box)
2 sets of wheels (one set of solid spokes, one hollow spokes)
Tires are Bridgestones REO50A about 50%

Recent Service:
Spark plugs, 3 coil packs, brake pads and new clutch have <1000 miles.
Mobil 1 every 5000K miles.
Work in the last 2 years done by Akram at Motorwerks

Asking 35K, obo. If anyone has any interest, or would like pictures etc, please shoot me a PM / email at aliota [at] gmail.com

for the record I personally feel cars that have been on track have the BEST maintenance because the drivers are very consious of every piece of the car - NOTHING IS NEGLECTED or left unmaintained!!

this is a truely great car and anyone who buys it will be blessed with joy from such a well cared for machine...

as you know selling on RL isnt always successful because most people who come here already have one. The "pay" sites like autotrader ect seem to yield the best results for selling. I wish you all the luck on the new ventures and hpe to have you back in the saddle quickly!

Lol. Whose car is that?!?

Thanks for the comments. I totally agree! In fact, I would not buy a pre-owned p-car that had not been on the track. It's probably done 5 DE weekends total. No offs.

I'm not giving my best effort to sell it since I do have a Tequipment bar, cup wheel, and set of Recaros waiting for install. :-)

The other thing about tracking a car is that you know the vehicle has to go in for frequent maintenance because to even make it to the track you need a DE inspection. Sure it's not quite a PPI but you can be that if the mechanic sees something amiss you'll be asked to fix it or you won't pass inspection.

As for the OP, gorgeous car and good luck with the sale!

Thanks!

For sure the car has been maintained over and above factory recs. Plus the nice thing about the 4S is that it has more brakes than power, so wear and tear to the pads, even on track, is pretty minimal. The OEM pads lasted to 50K miles (with 3 track weekends).
