$30-32K+, unless the auction goes viral or something, or it a sleeper and someone snags it cheap.

it's got pretty low miles and seems like a well sorted car.

best years of the bunch.

but I'm biased with my 2003 C4S.

Wow, after hearing of IMSB failures with no warnings, he flatbedded the car to his mechanic for a preventative IMSB replacement? I call bull**** on that flatbed ride story.

Odd that someone willing to flat-bed their car to the dealership for a bearing replacement is running Hankook's Evo. I'm running Evo2's, but I wouldn't be if I was trying to auction my car and wanted to make it look like the car had been pampered...

on subject car, is this IMS repair flange sealant supposed to look this gunky around the flange?
Shouldn't he be worried of the gunk likely protruding on the inside of the flange?

I am going to say that the shmuts around the IMB flange is just grease from the install.. not sealant...

I had my car shipped from FL to Flat 6 Innovations to have the solution done and shipped back to me. I have no regrets shipping it.

Read the above and then note that I am running Sumis.

No, it shouldn't look like that. Mine did not.

Yes, but if Jake's shop were across town instead of in northern Georgia, would you still have had it flatbedded?

Noted. Is this your car? If so, good luck - hope you make a s**t ton of money. If you DO make a s**t ton of money, please post a big f-you in the air-cooled forums for me.

If not, why so defensive about someone else's C4S?
