25k miles and asking 160. I also prefer DZL pack over red but my dream is a blue/red car. Impossible to find


p.s
what does the guards LSD add to the car? I remember you installed one in your 3.8RS.

DZL specifically? Or any of the DZx customization package?

Total DZL: 16
Total other DZx: 16

Interestingly enough no Aqua Blue cars.

About half of them are PTS, and those guys ordered them for themselves. The more crazy the spec, the less likely it usually is to appear on the open market.

You need to go and see the car in person if you're really interested, or get someone who knows these cars to look at it. Nathan Merz from Columbia Valley Luxury Cars can do that for you. He's local and I trust his opinion.

The front bumper looks beat as I'm sure will other parts upon close inspection. If it has XPEL on it you can remove it and reapply and it will be fine. The rear wheels appear to be the wrong size, maybe 11" wide? They are too tucked in. Rear muffler isn't stock either. Check the brakes, and other consumables. Hopefully the coolant lines have been taken care of. Has the clutch been replaced? If not, you'll need to budget for that. If you decide to bring it back to factory spec you'd need to spend another $15K easily. Other than that it seems nice, the interior looks like it's in good shape too.

I spoke to the previous owner last night. Coolant lines are definitely done.
