bump for input!!

 

nobody??

 

This is just my initial visual input... but where's the top of the airbox? Also looks like the wheels are missing the center caps.

I love the color..GPW..and the mileage is low.

 

yeah should i inquire about those things? thanks i didnt even notice that
is there anything to be wary of?

 

Well those things I wouldnt worry about to much. His wheels are oem painted gold, so he had the center caps off at some point to paint. Idk why you would leave them off though. And he had to take the airbox lid off to put that K&N drop in filter. Some people leave theirs off b/c they like the sound of it. I would say it looks good with decent mileage. Go for it!

 

Yeah... i was thinking the same thing about the center caps. Obviously he had them off to powdercoat/paint the wheels. Why not put them back on? As for the airbox i would def reinstall the airbox cover if i was trying to sell it. To me, it just looks better and tells me he's kept track of miscellaneous parts/takes care of his car.

I'm not trying to scare you off, these are two very minuscule things. I'm just putting in my 2cents.
The car looks great and i like the mileage. I'd say test drive it and if it runs/sounds good go for it.
Also from my experience in purchasing s2ks (ive bought 2) ive found it smart to take it to a shop and run a compression and/or leakdown test just to be sure the motor is strong.
It gives you a piece of mind and it only runs around 100bucks.

 

sweet thanks guys, would a dealer allow me to take the car and get it done at a shop before i buy or what?

 

Being a dealer they should be able to perform a compression/leakdown at their service dept. If you want to take it somewhere else, just ask. If youre a serious buyer and they want to sell the car they should allow it.

 

I bought my 06 gpw for 2,150$ 9k mileage with front spoiler, side strake and rear spoiler in Dec. If you can wait a little longer im sure you can find a better deal.
