Default Beck 550 Spyder

I have had this car for 2 months now and the car is AMAZING. You have not been in a "head turner" until you take a ride in this car. I have never experienced anything like it. Recently my needs have changed, I was hoping to drive this car all spring/summer howeveer I need a second DD in the family. We are going out tomorrow to pick out a new car. With that said I have priced my 550 to sell quickly. This car is loaded and in show room condition, every option you could pick at the Beck Factory was installed. It has the largest available CB Performance engine estimated at 165HP. This is a Factory built car with an all tube chasis. I also have a few parts that I am willing to sell or include in the deal. The paint on the car is incredible. The fender darts are a work of art. There are two scratches that are repairable on the front bumper. They are very very thin and they can be repaired. The car runs like a champ lots of power and fun to drive. Absolutley no mechanical problems EVERYTHING works. I did setup the push to start button and it fires right up. Summer is around the corner and this thing will be a BLAST! I will assist with shipping if needed. The car does have a full convertible top that is stored in the front trunk. The interior is leather and there are no rips. This is one of the CLEANEST 550's you will find. It drives solid. It's fast and light, you are going to love this car!

Eric you can't help yourself can you? I'm willing to bet you can't go 6 months without another P Car purchase.

Eric, what is the story behind the red pegasus? I'm pretty sure I have seen it before on some fighter aircraft, but I don't know the history behind it...

I'm gonna check on Monday to see if it's feasable to import this car into Canada. If it is, I'll make you an offer.

The red Pegasus is the icon used by Mobil Gas during that era. Search Mobile Gas on ebay and you will find LOTS of memorabilia. It's similar to the GULF Icon used when sponsoring cars during the 60's on cars like the 917.

Check out Spyderclub.com there are a bunch of 550 guys from Canada running around. It can be imported to Canada I beleive it is not that difficult. You will love the car. I had a guy call this morning and make a cash offer he called me back this evening and said that he would call me tomorrow. He was thinking about buying the extra parts I have available. Until I have a deposit the car is available forsale. I would much rather see the car go to someone like you! When this car sells I am Porscheless for a while. I picked up an E55 today Fully loaded Presidential Edition one of 10 made by Merc. for 10 US executives. Not a Porsche but it is an amazing car.

Eric, I cannot bring any kit car into Canada that was assembled less than 15 years ago. The catch is, the Beck is technically not a kit car if it came turnkey ready from Beck. If it was a 1992 or older model, I'd be safe, but because it's a 2000, I need to check with Transport Canada to verfiy if it's considered a kit car, or a manufactured car.

There is a red beck 550 in town, but I can't stand the red on a 550. It must be silver or grey.

I too will get one "someday". Do you know if you can get a loan from a bank for this type of car or do you need to pay cash? Just curious

Rich that is too bad!

M Fig - JJ Best Banc. Finances (simple interest up to 72 months) Beck cars with no problems what so ever. It's a very simple process.

I spoke to 6 different people today there is a lot of intrest in the car. I have a $22K bid on ebay with no reserve so it will be fun to see where it goes over the next 7 days.
