Needs taillights. VHT Nightshades should be considered war crimes.

Agreed.  If I owned one of those, I'd have to do something with the reverse lights.  There is a black one around here with blacked out tail lights and blacked out trim and two giant white lights in the middle of the trunk.  Who the hell drew that?  Who approved it?

Possible? Why only possible. 

Should be planned, or maybe in progress.

I was focusing more on the "bad" part

any reason this in "off topic"?  shouldn't I move it to "build threads" while I'm at it?  wink

I don't have possession.....quite...yet. I get the title over lunch.

 

As for build threads?  I'm not certain I'm going to keep it.    If anyone is interested in a cheap luxury challenger, I might just flip it.

Black leather interior,  6spd.    I'm told the clutch is brand new.

Mechanically needs a clutch master cylinder.

Young owner was quoted  450 per month to insure.

Missing? Passenger windshield wiper

Update.  Needs the end of the pushrod for the cmc.   No longer stays attached to the pedal. 

 

I can temporarily attach it and start the car.

Hoping  for a sub $500 total investment.

I'll bet $5 of sandpaper, a headlight polishing kit and some elbow grease would sand that drywall punching Kyle paint right off those tail lights.

Very shocked 23 year old here paying half that on 2 cars. I would have let go of it too. Young must mean barely legal to drive young here.

LOL @ "drywall punching Kyle paint".  This seems like it would fit well in a certain monthly feature of the magazine.

It also has no badges, which screams "I was rearended and the shady bodyshop billed the insurance company for them and didn't put them on, kicking the money back to me to cover the deductible".  Which is a thing that happens a remarkable number of times, judging how every one of my friends who'd been in a collision got that offer from the body shop.

 

No matter what, it means the car had been repainted at some point in its life, which is a valuekiller.
