considering selling...

hey guys... after 5 long years of workin my car I am finding myself alil financially strapped and want to get out of debt for a new start.... I AM CONSIDERING SELLING CASPER!!!!!

I will not be low balled and will list out the costs of everything so you can see the considerable loss that I am taking... even though I know you never get back what you put into a car, I dont want to be rapped...

I have spent $$$ on:
Body Kit: $4,000.00
CF Hood: $400.00
Rims: $1400.00
Air Ride: $4000.00
IASCA Comp Stereo: $24,000.00 ( I have receipt as proof!)
Headers: $1100.00
Exhaust: $500.00
Xdrilled / Slotted F & R brakes: $500.00

Thats a total of $35,900.00 in major mods alone... My signiature reflects all other modifications that I have done and am not including in the $$$... I have dyed my interior black on the lower half so that the interior is dark beige, light beige and black (like new Navigators)... Wood grain is anthractite color... I also have new gauges in the car for air ride...

Check signiature pics at FOTKI....


I am asking $20,000.00 for the car... This INCLUDES EVERYTHING except AMPLIFIER and EQ... Both go for $4000.00 and the amplifier is 1 of 200 made, limited edition with certificate.... If you want that to be included I am asking an even $25,000.00...

it is a 1998 with 69,234 miles....

Most of you know me and my car personbally so you know I am no slouch and take great car of my car....
I have won many trophies and have gotten much recognition in the show circuit with this car... SERIOUS inquiries please!!!!

Thank you!
Gianni

It might be easier to sell if you part it out.

Good luck with it.

yeah, I think it may be more beneficial for you if you part ouit the car.

You might be able to get more of your money back,

All wiring are clean and zip tied to IASCA spec at 4" apart... All fiberglass, woofers installed in rear inner quarter panels... Real CF floor in trunk, and the list goes on...

The amp and EQ are $2000 a piece!!! The amp is #186 of 200 made... alot of the costs was labor for Fiberglass which is all pressure fot to the mold of the floor...

I guess but i still dont see putting 25k into a 1st gen cl for just audio alone? I mean im not putting down the CL but its not that great of a car to waste soo much money on...If you put all that money together you could have a very nice car.

rodxx.. you are right but I did this for a reason.. NO ONE ELSE WAS!!!! now you look and there are CLs all over the show circuit... I was one of the first (with very lil mods) and now one of many with a great amount of mods... It was a matter of the $$$ it was a matter of the ooohhhss and aaaahhhhss and the respect that I get for the quality of the work and effort I put into my car...

If iI had to again, would I ... Hell NO... but it was fun the first time around!!!! Now That I am older and focusing on other avenuies in my life.... I need somethings to change with it....

so someone please BUY or find someone to BUY this car!!!

I believe that his body kit is molded on, so there is no way to part it out, is this correct?

Maybe should have someone steal it and get the insurance money and then just repaint the car... j/k Damn you did alot of work to that car. I still have my first big project car. I hate to see guys put blood sweat and tears (money) into a car and than have to get rid of it, especailly when they go that extra mile to set themselves apart. You gotta do what you gotta do goodluck! pm me a price I have a friend whos looking for an acura (he saw your car at HIN and really liked it).
