And at $117K it is not the highest optioned turbo, but it’s definitely not the lowest either. My ‘02 turbo ($126K+ new) is seal gray on black and one of the many reasons I like that color a lot is, even after 3-4 weeks of not washing the car, it still looks clean and you can’t really tell it needs a rinse. Not that I let it go that long without a wash, but it’s the truth...just clean your wheels and you can skip a wash or two. 👍😀
I concur. Color is very personal. When I was looking, there were 2 silvers, arctic and polar, that I was deciding between. To me, the arctic has a brown tint whereas the polar has a blue tint, I preferred the polar much more so that is what I got. Options didn't mean anything to me, it was all about condition. It is nice to have a dirty car and know that it still looks good unless you get within 3 feet.

Bone stock. Looks like it could be a good buy. No affiliation.

I don't think it is stock. Says it has 450hp. There must be something wrong with it, has it priced quite cheap.

I think they did.

I remember (it's been awhile though) trying to decide whether or not to spec my 2002 with X50 when I was putting my order together.

I ran the VIN and it doesn't list X50 on that car, but who knows. The asking price still seems way too cheap to me.

If there isn't an underlying issue with the car, I agree.

Well, it’s January and in Utah - he probably wants to actually sell it. Would be a great deal for someone.
My 2002 has the X50 package, btw.

A quick search on of the vin shows that the car has been for sale a few times lately-one ad had some really nice pictures of the car. This ad is out of Georgia and undated as far as I can tell.
