Buggin about info? How is asking info about a vehicle being sold considered buggin?? Can you explain that statement! I doubt anyone would buy a car with out asking any info about it. Would you?

Some people ..wow..! I sold my max and am looking around. Would make sense to ask questions about several cars which capture your interest in order to make adequate decisions. But im thinking like a normal human being. Lol. Bump for Cef

Thanks for the info Cef. I i have seen plenty pics on FB i know its a nice machine, done right. I thought you had put rods and pistons which was making me consider your ride as a future boost candidate. Good luck on the sale indeed well worth the asking price.

It would sell alot faster if you fixed what is wrong with it in my opinion. Given the year and mileage you are looking for a buyer who has that cash as no bank will finance it.
What does it book out at with no mods?
GLWS I am asking $500 less for mine if that puts it into perspective.

Anyone who wants it will need to speak up and offer me some cash for the car and we can negotiate accordingly.

$4500 is a fair price.
I honestly think if you fixed the 'issues' with it and had a dyno chart it would sell alot quicker. From my own experience buying and selling multiple modded cars over the years if I know I have to immediately spend money to fix things like the AC, axels, rust, ripped seat, etc. it is a HUGE turn off. I don't want to go to a yard and find axels, a seat, ac compressor(I assume that is where yours is leaking), and then a weekend fixing rusted fenders which might mean I need paint work on my 'new to me' car.
I am not trying to dog your car just saying having 'issues' with an already modified car turns off people alot.
People are *****ing about my 03 for sale because it needs a new catback. I show them on one on ebay for $300 and they still think they need to take 1k off my asking price.
Best of luck! What will your new car be?

As far as new cars, there won't be any. I have a GS400. I don't want to build a car until I defecate money.
