Problem is that, that deal is only on a 2 year lease

I see your logic behind the upgrade but the way i see it is if im goin to a 530 might as well move up to a 550
I can get the 550 for 880 including tax but just want the car for the looks mainly I have my 944 turbo for when i wanna perform.

Thanks for your replys

Ah, gotcha. Well, good luck with that. And you're right, you could get a 550 for that price. My car is the same as a 550, less a few of the options of course. But I needed the AWD in NY. I refuse to look at my car sitting in the garage all winter. I want to drive it year round. Too bad they don't make the 550 in AWD... Good luck with your new purchase. Enjoy it. You'll love it!

Yes i have an 88 with the lindsey racing 363rwhp kit that been modded a lil more to give me 415 at the wheels I also have the LSD tranny.
Man i bought this car for 3,500 and spent 2,800 on the kit including install and I can smoke
Vipers, Corvettes ( havent raced a new z06 yet) and pretty much any other car on the road all day long.

These cars have one of the best handlings i have seen so well balanced engine in the front tranny in the back

check out lindseyracing's site youll see the power they are getting outta these 2.5l 4cly engines its amazing
oh forgot to mention my car has over 200k miles on it. it has all that power and is still an everyday driver. and the gas milege is great.

I have one red one (the one mentioned above) and one black one (not modded)
I had 19" HRE's on it 265's front 295's rear

So anyways its my favorite car.

Do you live in Phoenix? If so, then I've probably seen both of them--especially the red one. I never see it when in my Z06. Have you taken it to the strip? Results? What should it do in the 1/4? There was a 944 turbo that used to beat the heck out of those in its class at the PIR SCCA weekend races.
