Selling a 98 GST that has been my reliable daily driver for over 2 years now. It has 121k miles on the chasis. The motor is freshly rebuilt by Norpa Machines with new pistons, rings, rods, bearings, crank, oil pump & water pump. It has less than 3k miles on it. The head was also rebuilt with new cams, valve seals, valves, etc. I have all reciepts of work! The oil has been changed regulary with 10W-30 non synthetic mobil 1 motor oil. The car has been maintained real well and also has a new radiator, new Khumo Ecsta ASX front tires, brakes, rotors, pasanger side axle, belts, hoses, water lines, new oem rear motor mount with prothane insert. The clutch is oem but it only has about 4k miles on it.

I have to say this, because many people do this type of thing wrong. You did it the right way. All the information I would want you put down, therefor you get the :bigthumb:

Car looks clean as hell. Should be an easy sell, but if I was you I would have put the asking price a little higher and then negotiated from there. Wish I had the $7k, I would drop it on your desk right away. :iceslolan

Thanks. I originally had the asking price at $7900 but i got a few phone calls, but no one came down to take a look at the car. So i thought maybe in there eyes i was asking too much. The only reason im rushing to sell it is because college starts in less than 2 weeks and i dont have the complete $$$ i need to start my next semester. Sad but true, i wouldnt be selling my car if i did have the $$$.

Should be an easy sell for you. You know, if you really love your car that much, we could always make a deal where I buy your car and we have it written that you have to buy it back within 5 years for the exact same price so that you sort of "borrow" the money. And something in the contract about limited amount of miles per year ect.

Just an idea! I know how hard it must be to sink in that kind of work and have to turn around and loose it.

Oh believe me bro, it is very very hard on me. Yes i have put alot of time, money, blood, sweat in this car. The result is an outstanding running upgraded GST. 300+ WHP at the dyno, reliable 26 MPG Daily driver. Unfortuantely in out lifetime, there are many circumstances that put us in situations like these. I just hope whoever the next owner of this car is, takes care of her like I did and treats her good.

Oh yeah, definitly, the turbo spoiler makes it a totally different car. I love it, had to pay $137 shipped for it, but Im still happy with it! All I need now is some stock side skirts, then I will be looking good, lol.

God damn. Another good deal on a turbo DSM and its on other side of the US. I wish some one would sell a car with those mods around here. I am still looking for a turbo DSM around Nevada :). Maybe two more months of looking and I will buy a CBR600 or Yamaha R1.

I felt the same way when i was looking for a DSM. However, i decided to settle for a bone stock one since i couldnt find one with the basic mods done. Then 2 years later, here I am 300+ WHP. The sad part is sometimes you have to let things go that are only wants..not needs. And i damn sure need money for college as the clock keeps ticking!

I can't get a loan.. I'm 19 with no credit and I'm at school which means I don't have a steady job with which to repay it.

she is still for sale guys. Ive had alot of phone calls and emails, but no one has came down to take a look at it. Ive had a couple people tell me there in the military and are going to pick the car up early January. If any of you have $7200 OBO, come get her.

I hear ya man... Tis a sad day when you have to sell your DSM... They probably won't understand what kind of deal they are gonna get cause its a girl... My girlfriend to be more exact. lol Shes looking for an Eclipse and I just want her to buy it so I can drive it. :evillol: I told her that if shes buying an Eclipse it has to be either a GST or a GSX... Donno how the 5 speed thing will go over with her though, thats why I figure I'll just have to ask her. BTW, do you have any problems with the oem clutch slipping with that much power?

Hey, no clutch problems. I think that 300 WHP is about all the oem can handle. But i do recommend anyone looking for more power in the future go with an upgraded clutch. Less stress on it. :tongue:

Alright guys more than likely the car will be gone within a week or so. I have a couple of people who are going to come down to take a look at it. If any of you are interested, Im giving the last opportunity to come take a look and take her home with you. Just thought id let those who are interested know about whats going on.

Thanks

12-19-2005, 10:29 PM
Yeah, I checked with the girl and she can't and doesn't wanna learn to drive 5 speed. So shes out of it... Good luck selling it still.

If you got the cash..come get her. There are currently 9 interested buyers in which 4 of them are fighting on who is going to buy the car. It might be sold later on today but if anyone is still interested, it is never too late.

Sorry to hear about your accident, that sucks real bad. The car is still for sale at this point. if you are planning to come down, let me know ahead of time because i have about 4 serious buyers and 8 more that are interested who could show up any day or minute. Dont want you to drive all the way down and have the car be sold. Ill let you know by this evening if i can take paypal so you could pay the 1000 ahead of time (as a deposit) and reserve the car. Best i can do is $6500 at this point. The price is already low as it is. Fastest way to reach me is by phone 703-477-4922, or by email scarfacedsm@hotmail.com

Regards,
Fahad

Well talk to your parents and see what happens. As of right now im accepting all offers, but if someone puts a deposit for the car, the sale will be pending.

Update: The car is sold. Thanks to all that had interest in my car. She is now in the hands of a good DSM'er. The shop that will build the car will be extreme motorsports..planning to get a good race setup with over 550 WHP.
