I figured this may be a popular car with people who like putting V8's in tiny cars

I just bought this in January to use for this summer, and approximately 4 weeks later my wife decides she isn't "fulfilled" in her job and decides to take a "more rewarding" job that also includes a 35% pay cut.

I'm really happy to have to pay $3500 in sales tax and literally not get to use the car at all, but apparently that is what needs to happen if we are to continue towards our savings goals, etc. which I guess trump my need to have ridiculous cars.

I am the second owner. 22xx original miles. Vehicle has original manuals, keys, top, etc. No dings, dents, scratches.

Fantastic condition as you would expect from a vehicle that has been garaged and only driven 200 or so miles a year since new.

Perfect timing with spring just a couple weeks away!

$45000 obo. Email = turbolexus@gmail.com if interested.

These vehicles bottomed out in value a couple years ago and are SLOWLY creeping back up. Typically there are only one or two for sale at a time nationwide.

For those who don't know about these cars they made 176 (7 of this color were made in 98) of them over 3 years (97, 98, 99). They are handmade down in Georgia and are easily serviced as most major wear items are actually common parts from similar model year Ford Cobras (motor, trans, brakes, etc.). The car weighs 25xx lbs! They also hold nearly 1g on the skidpad, so it isn't just a cruiser, they actually perform very well.

Some of the stock performance numbers are as follows:

0-60 4.5
skidpad .97g
braking from 60mph 110ft
weight distribution 50/50

FWIW, I have had 2 LS1 FD's, and this feels stronger than both of them did in the limited seat time I have had (I have only driven the car about 2 miles).

Sure... I haven't taken the top of since I have owned it because it is sitting in the garage until the weather gets nice and I don't want the inside to get dusty. I do have a couple pics from when it was sitting on the lot I bought it off of though with the top off.

The top is primarily for storage as it is nearly impossible to get in/out of it with the top on anyway!

Just a side note but i heard somewhere that the originator of the panos race car fueled his desire to build these particular car by starting a lucrative pharmecutical company that prospered quite well. Correct me if im wrong. I would love to own one but unfortunately at this current time im actually selling my ls1 rx7.

Very nice car. Good luck with the sale.
