Man that is an amazing sound on that engine, and extremly beautiful car. I wish I had the funds to purchase and transport and register. GLWS

I want it... unless he's willing to take a sincere price cut, it's just not affordable to me frown.gif

Beautiful car man. Love the paint. That's the same color I'm painting my 22B clone. 7,500 is a freaking steal. Wish I had more car fund money.

Thanks! I just wish someone could come up with the money.

FYI people, PLEASE quit asking me if I'll sell this or that off the car separately. I am not parting ANYTHING out off the car separate.

At this rate I might be able to come up with the cash, its always sort at the holiday.

You never know. I don't expect it to sell in the dead of winter, but I have to keep trying.

And to reiterate. I AM NOT PARTING A SINGLE ITEM OFF OF THE CAR, PLEASE QUIT ASKING, ESPECIALLY ABOUT THE TRD SHIFTER.

I keep coming back here and by now I have to admit it's a nice shade of red actually.

Everyone here is broke or in a Supra though, parting out would increase the odds of selling as you could lower the price with each part sold. If it were me I'd give eBay a few tries and then would consider a mild part out if you can't sell it whole on eBay for what you want. Just something to think about anyway. Yes in actuality it's worth every penny and then some, but finding someone that'd choose a FWD car over a LS car or the like will be hard. Hell you're selling it to get back a Corvette, I rest my case. tongue.gif Anyhow best of luck again, maybe someone will buy it soon as a Xmas gift or the like.

There's nothing to part out though. If I start pulling parts off the car I'm left trying to sell a horribly incomplete vehicle. Not gonna happen. I know its a hard sell given the demographics of the typical 6th Gen owner/enthusiast (no offense meant to anyone at all), and I'm not hard pressed to sell it either. Would I like to see it go soon? Sure. Will it break me? Nope.

sorry buddy, the main issue I have been finding is transport. even a close friend of mine is charging way too much as he would be driving about 2300 miles round trip with his 3500 duramax and trailer. shipping is practically 1500$

I understand, I'd hate to part out the pieces of the car I worked hard to put together and then not be able to sell it still. Then you're worse off than you were to begin with. I'd still give eBay a shot though as you'll greatly increase the potential buyers, do it as a Buy It Now Or Best Offer with an instant deposit required so that way no jerks get you stuck with fees out of your own pocket.

When I was buying my car (Around 1200 miles away from memory) the shipping was too expensive so I flew down ($100) and drove it back over a couple of days (Fuel + $60-100/night motels). Where there's a will there's a way!

Can't believe this hasn't sold... as a lump sum of cash it isn't cheap, but when you consider that you can easily spend $3-5k on a basket case of a 3S swap that doesn't run right and has dodgy paint this car is quite good value...... And TRD shifter tongue.gif

I'm curious where you guys are getting your shipping estimates. Granted it was a decade ago, but I had a car I purchased shipped from Oregon to New Jersey and it only cost me $1K. IN to TX should be no more than $600-700 max I'd think. Or fly in, I can pick you up at the airport (Indianapolis is the cheapest closest to me), and the car is solid for a road trip.

I'll probably put it on ebay here soon, been meaning to do that. Kind of have my eye on something (low mile 96 LT4 CE Corvette for DIRT, and I mean DIRT cheap) to tide me over for a while and this selling would go a LONG way towards that.

My step-dad recently had a Corvair shipped from somewhere up north for around $500 to here. Though he bought a second one in Texas and everyone wanted $1,000 or more, so he just went and got it himself. Some companies charge more for cars that won't run, or if they're too low, etc... and anything else that causes hassle. Really anyone would be better off buying a one-way ticket and driving it back home. With fuel being as cheap as it is now this would be the time, make a road trip out of it even.

That would be a concern if mine was to be shipped. With the SSIII splitters and S-Tech springs it loses a lot of clearance.

But again, car is solid for a road trip. One way tickets are cheap!

Exactly, could probably fly out and drive it home for just a few hundred. That or you could do a rental that it doesn't matter which of their locations you drop it back off. Definitely some cheaper alternatives to shipping, plus you don't have to worry about some gorilla messing it up.

Shoot, I think I'd even be willing to deliver the car on a closed sale too, depending on location of course.
