Asking $29,000,but that price will come down...

I have never liked that color. But the car looks very clean. And with that combo, including the composite spring, it looks to be an excellent driver / play car. With that price and list of mods, I would think that it is a steal. The car looks like a sleeper. Stock appearing but pure "wolf" underneath. If it were my decision, I would go for it. The mods listed are hard to duplicate for anywhere near the asking price. And if the rest of the car is as clean and well detailed as the pictures suggested, someone took time to do this one right.
Go and look at a new car and their prices, you can't get a decent fun car for near that price. Forget any resale value or original parts values. Look at the fun factor.
