I no longer have the CF hood or CF Front Lip. I have a Stillen Front Lip on there now. The vehicle doesn't currently have airbags. I ran over a median one night at 10mph and the airbags blew. I was dumb and didn't have insurance at the time. I put the Sparco steering wheel on there, and fabricated a gauge pod for the passenger side airbag. It's definetely not the best looking thing, but it's better then a hole.

Both sideskirts are currently cracked. They're molded to the car. The front lip needs to be repainted. I can have this done for you, or you can take it someone that you trust. The color is from a 2003 Lamborghini Murcielago, we then added a Gold Pearl to it. The stock struts are blown, they need to be replaced. I can get you a good deal on Tein Basics if you interested. I have the original cloth interior as well, I'll include it if you're interested. The drivers seat is not in the best condition, it needs a new base. The "newer" leather interior is in good condition. The leather seats are heated, however I never got around to getting the switches and hooking them up.

The tires are in great condition, just got them this summer.

The vehicle currently has 144,xxx miles on it. The transmission has less then that. I would guess at somewhere around 80k miles. I however have no proof of this. It is an automatic. The CEL light is on for a small EGR leak and a knock sensor. I have a new OEM knock sensor sitting the glovebox. I will also include a brand new black center console and other misc parts I have lying around. The belts and idler pulley were just replaced last month at Burien Nissan, where I work. I have used Valvoline SynPower oil for every old change the last 4 years.

The stereo is mostly not hooked up. Just the deck, 4 channel amp and front and rear speakers. I will include everything listed though.

This car has won many trophies here in the Pacific NW. I believe it to be over 15 trophies in the corner of my room.

Here is a pic of how the car sits today.


I'm currently asking $8,000 OBO. If you feel that's too much lemme know what you think is fair and we'll go from there. I've invested a lot of time and money into this car and would like to see it go somewhere to someone that will continue to enjoy it.

If you have any questions, please feel free to get a hold of me. I can be emailed at mattf@mospeed.com or AIM airmattdog. I'm located in the Seattle area.

Dude there are some serious freakin' modded Maxes available. I have that kind of cash, but I'm not worthy of owning this car. It's too nice and knowing me, I would not take the care required of the work you put into it.

That and I'm pretty far away, so...

But that is amazing work. Many kudos.

Here's some older shots. Just for a look. I'll get some new updated ones as soon as I get some time. This doesn't show the current Sparco steering wheel nor the gauge pod.

I might end up putting it on Ebay.

I'm asking $8k for it because the front lip needs repainting, and the sideskirts need to be remolded and painted as well. Which I can get done for about $700 or so. It also needs to struts.

As for the paint...It really needs to be seen in person. It's amazing at sunset.

I just don't feel like putting anymore money into it.

Thanks for the compliments. I truly do appreciate it.

wow bar far my favorite max on the org and you are selling I so wish I could swing the 8g's cause I would buy it in a heart beat...but the wife would not have it and really the budget just wont support another car payment, I hope someone who will apreciate that car as much as you did will buy it soon. Good luck.

Still available. Some out there really needs to buy this. It's just sitting in my driveway with a car cover over it. It's sad and needs a home.

At least make an offer on it!

looking at 8-900. Depends I was quoted 450 to ship a car from ohio to ct. So it's not that much as you'll probably spend close to half of that on gas anyways.

Amazing car, I'd be very very interested if it was nearer to Connecticut. First thing I'd do is a tranny swap.
