I've owned the car for about 4 years now. I have taken exceptionally good care of it. It has always been stored properly during the off season, maintained meticulously, and stored in a climate controlled setting. If you read the above list carefully, you'll notice many unusual extras. For example, the rear spoiler has been custom mounted onto the trunk with specially anodized heim joints and APR Type II stantions. The front license plate (not seen in pictures) drops down at the touch of a button from inside the cabin. The passenger's SRS has been replaced with a driver controlled pop-up TPMS system. The rear bumper has a hidden hitch built into it for towing a trailer. The interior is specially molded around the hard dog roll bar, yet retains the center console and secret compartment. The hardtop has a special mount built under it to allow the V1 radar detector to get the maximum "field of view" to police radar. The custom air ducts that vent the front brakes are routed to specially designed rotor brackets. The Prodrive GC-07cs that are +50 offset are the only known set in the US. The list goes on and on. These things aren't commercially available. They've been specifically built or sought out for this car. Any time I get a question on where I got a particular modification, the explanation usually turns into a conversation about hours of trial and error, sourcing, and days of labor to make the modification fit to OEM standards.


Please note that this car is in pristine condition. It has a full body wrap (satin pearl white), and the paint underneath is superb. There are no CELs, no engine codes, no problems passing inspection, and no rattles/creaks/noises. I will get the car up on a lift for any legitimate buyer for a full inspection.


I recognize that the asking price for this car is not within everyone's budget. Please understand that there is a valid reason for this. If you're interested in seeing the car, text or PM me. If you've no intention of buying, but are interested in coming to hang out, discuss modifications, and just look at the level of work and thought that went into this project, no problem. Contact me. If you want to take pictures, make notes, talk to the shop guys, and see what may be applied to your own car, again, I'll facilitate. If you're serious about purchasing the car, then please come with a valid driver's license and proof of insurance. I have the title in hand and am not looking for trades or trying to finance anyone.

Thanks Dave. The E92 in your sig looks magnificent! Sadly, I wont be replacing the S with anything. With young kids and only a 2-car garage, I think I'm in for a bit of a dry spell...

Surj, which rear bumper will it come with? The AP2 or AP1? And was it ever tuned? Thanks!

Clyde, No tune. Both bumpers are available, but the AP2 bumper is currently on it (as it fits the diffuser). Good eye!
