Guess I should've bought a house first also, but sometimes when you have an itch, you just gotta scratch it, "If you know what I mean"

Thanks in advance...

i was going to bid on this car too, but the missing parts kinda scared me. i'm not too familiar with these car yet as far as the turbo/engine parts go. there's another one in savannah that i've been contemplating on bidding on

I'll say fixed this much I'll have under 10g's into it finished, at least I'm hoping so. Someone ran up the bid on me, but it's hard to find White with the sunroof I wanted. Guess you could say I'm rolling the dice, and yes copart is a salage auction but the car is coming with a clear title though..............

lol you realize thats a dealer car and 99% of those are pulled frames and done up to look good on copart? Never buy a car you plan on keeping on copart.

That's were people sell them, to make profit, after making them look less of a hit.
I buy IAAI, straight from insurance companies.

Sence I'm only 3 hours from Atlanta, I took a drive and went and checked out the car personally. Rear damage can be pulled out, just missing some IC piping other than that clean car. Couldn't find anything on IAA, as I said wish me luck hoping to make a list of what I need and having the car done two weeks after car has arrived.........

lol I really DO wish you luck with a copart car.
Get ready for crazy surprises.


Hope you finish it though. Mine once was damaged aswell, and is now a fully functioning beast
I also have a MR I will be completing once I have cash from selling mine.

Just be careful and try not to buy parts from the dealer as I did. You'll end up like me..
I have over 20K into mine, so the whole idea of saving some cash went to hell, but I guess it was worth it for the cars sake

I got one also from copart

I bought one that was stolen and stripped in the summer. Still buying parts to get it all back together. I am buying some go fast parts instead of stockers. The whole process is a pain in the ***. If I had to do it again I would buy one already put together, Less hassle and You know definately what you are buying. Good luck to all on the projects. Ebay has some good parts also, So does Buschurs forum.
