I don't know much about it other than the fact that my car has it, I'm 6'-0" and have plenty of headroom with the seats moved down low. It also helps the car's handling significantly with the lower center of gravity

It feels like you sit a couple inches lower than standard. I can't get a comfortable angle with normal but XSU makes seat position adjustment better for some reason.

What does the group think a very nice manual '02 38K mile Arctic Silver w/ Sports seats is worth today?

Depending on interior color and how well the car "preseents", somewhere around $50k.

I'm sure we all have tons of opinions...but yeah, we need some details, car's history, pics, etc. $50K is definitely ballpark. Smart buyers are paying a little extra for very clean well maintained cars, they're actually cheaper to own in the long run.

So is that a true factory aerokit that someone slapped a GT2 wing on? If so, yuck and why. And I see they moved the turbo designation, again yuck and why. Glad to see the $81k price though!

and despite that, it sold well. It boggles the mind that someone would replace the factory aero wing/trunk with a GT2 wing. Yuck. Turbo script looks retarded where they put it. Yet the car gets top dollar. (but still about half of MSRP).

Well sold IMO.

A new turbo for $80k is a pretty good deal, and blk/blk is the baddest color combo to many.
These cars still keep up with most new cars costing the same and won't take a $30k the first couple years owner has it unless everything tanks.

Low miles or not, I'm shocked someone paid this much for a car with the wrong wing, wrong wheels, and comfort seats. Don't get me wrong, I'm also very happy about it - since I own a black on black '03 X50 .
