The car has an intake and an intercooler but no tune... Is that safe? Or should I stay away.

Who puts a shift light on a car and doesnt race it?

Why no engine pics?

Title status:rebuilt for 11500? Meh

 

The rebuilt title is more worrisome than the other things.

 

was rebuilt at 2880 miles. Needed a new quarter panel.

 

A rebuilt car and it's 11,500, hope you never want to trade it. I had debated selling mine fully bolted with 36000 miles and figured at best I could get $12,500. So yes, rebuilt title for 1,000 less is steep. Nice looking though.

 

Looks good but you may want to check it over good test drive etc

 

Oh it was raced I'll bet why the rear quarter replacement. Just saying.

 

Def bring the magnet and see if the quarter panel was replaced or bondo'd over. The price is def a little high for a rebuilt title. Make sure this one doesnt have the cracked block leaking coolant issue. Get some pic's of the engine bay, find a friend with HPTuners and ask if you can verify the tune on the car, do a read entire and compare it to a stock LNF file in the tune repository.

 

Would getting a compression test done tell me if the motor is good?

 

11,500 for rebuilt, are you crazy?
There is one here for 6500 rebuilt.
There is one in Florida for 7000 rebuilt.

Rebuilt titles are worth about half of what the NADA or KBB on the car is.

For 11,500 there are tons of ~50k mile TC's around. Just be a little patient. Hell, there are people here that will sell you theirs for that and youll get a full history on the car as well.

 

Too much for a rebuild
