black MSP - my wife wanted the yellow p5 - i told her she could sell her '01 and get it, don't know if she will... it's $8900 - 2002 w/ 75,000 miles (from a dealer) she could probably talk them down to 8k out the door...


Here is the info I have on the black MSP (going to look at it tonight or tomorrow)

It is a factory turbo 2.0liter 4-cylinder. It has 57k miles and has seen NO time in the shop. I purchased this car in Feb. of '03 and it has been a daily driver since. This car is in great shape. Non-Smoker! All papers from regular service are in glove compartment. (oil changes etc.) Beyond the factory upgrades done to this car, I have also added the following: Conical air filter, Tein lowering springs, Apex 2 1/2" downpipe with Arospeed titanium tip exhaust, Indigospeed 7.5lb flywheel, ACT heavy duty clutch plate w/ organic disc, and Autometer dual pillar pod with boost and voltage gauges.

i made it home! that's 100 miles! - gotta get rid of the fart can exhaust though... and get used to a turbo (or.. can't dump the clutch at 4... just lights the tires up) - very quick. ... and in VERY good condition, there is a notch knocked out of the splitter up front and a very small dent in rear quarter panel (both fixed easy) oh and the light for the boost gauge went out on the way home (just my luck) - figuring that is an easy fix too.
