I'd buy it just as long as everything is good and checks out ok. If so, one hell of a deal.

Yes! Just make sure there's nothing wrong with it. I ended up paying 11k after taxes for my ss 2.4 n/a sedan. So I'd say that's dam good

Id be very weary of a car with that many modifications, thats very cheap. First glance to me, its beat and trying to get dumped on some dummy for a quick buck. BUUUUUTTT I could be 100% wrong. I wouldnt buy a modded car unless it was an older jeep wrangler (which im going to do evertually) because you can find them adult built!

Think about it, guarantee this was built by someone under 28.

What's this have to so with anything? My buddy is 20 with a fully built foxbody mustang. Re did everything himself along with the help of his dad. It might actually not be half bad seeing as it is tuned by byt. Byt at one point didn't steer anyone wrong with these lnfs.

compression test lol

pay the $100 and have a mechanic give it a once over to make sure there isn't any problems with it.

IE compression test, pressure test, etc.

holy lord. that seems almost suspicious..or else maybe the owner really does need it gone badly.

if you go look at it,maybe do a compression test. that is alot of mods though BUT the mileage seems really low. have you asked the owner any questions about the car?

Just asked him what's wrong with the car? he said some minor scratches, car is clean title, tires are good, no cel. not sure what else to look for.

also i'd definitely change those purple rims lol

"My biggest fear guys. Idk how else to put this but ever since I have been 15 I have cried my self to sleep cause I can't stand to think about growing up. I would rather drive my tc into a wall at 140 then think about this ****. My birthday is in 7 min and I needed to get this out! Cannot stand to think of me moving into a college dorm or away from my bedroom. Well on the good side. My car is getting tuned tomorrow" - Cobe

This is eric hunts car. He also owns a 500hp LSJ. Its a clean sedan thats was tune by BYT.

IMO he cant afford the car and wants to get rid of it.

I can vouch for this car its a steal for sure.
