    The good and the bad...

    The car is awesome. Just about everything is new and wouldn't hesitate going long distances. It's very quick, it's comfortable, it handles very well and it can stop itself hard. I could go on and on.

    As for the bad, the car is low to the ground especially for California's steep dips and driveways into parking lots. Also, I never got around to getting my car BAR approved and CARB legal. I kept the car registered in Florida to save money (I think it cost $50 to register it there lol) and to avoid the hassle of CARB.

    The car is located in Huntington Beach, I'm busy during the week but the car can be taken on test drives on weekends for seriously interested parties. The car is priced at $11,000 price is negotiable.

    Man, sounds like a really nice car. I'm shocked you don't have pics of it.

        Was this Eric Lukas's old car? Also, how come you don't come out to meets?

          Yep, I should email him to see if he might want it back lol.

          Never came out to meets because I used to work weekends or the car was being worked on. Now I work weekdays and have the weekends off so I could bring it out to a meet in the near future.

                Eric Lukas hahahahahahahaahahaha hadn't heard that name in ages. What ever happened to that guy, wasn't he the guy that wanted to sue his local police department over a ticket??? He did fool a lot of people into buying that cheap stove bent abs plastic piece he called a heat shield, and what about his chinese rear strut bars. That guy was worth a few laughs.

                OP: That was a free bump for your car btw. Car seems worth every penny but we need pics!!

                    Wow so much I didn't know about that car. I used to drool over that thing endlessly when I was younger.
