Thanks! my friend had ap2 headlights, tailights and center console on it but he sold it

he did leave me the suspension setup, wheels and ap2 front bumper at least.. lol, the least he can do for me helping him get his car setup and doing some motor work together...

a little history.. first owner was a middle-aged Caucasian male and my friend picked it up for $9k.

Are you referring to the clutch buzz in AP1s?

And damn, 206k on the original clutch is extremely impressive with these cars.

Yeah I'd say. I can't imagine it having a ton of life left. I don't think I've ever heard a clutch last that long, especially on a sports car. You sure it wasn't replaced by the original owner?

Suggestion: replace the clutch with an AP1v2 unit. No more clutch buzz!

Holy crap that's a lot of miles. Makes sense why he got it for $9k then.

It's definitely going to need a replacing but it still grabs strong.

Raise your hand if the value of your car just went up.

Also, not sure why most of those hashtags are there. Maybe I'm a bit old but how does a S2000 crash have anything to do with a Phantom?

I always get my ad deleted when I add even relevant tags.

Also, it's Spa not Rio. I don't think Rio came on the AP1?

who cares, it's fit for the crusher now

If the rear quarter panel didn't get destroyed when the wheel was ripped off, it'd be worth looking into saving. But with body and mechanical damage, I dunno. I'm sure insurance considers it a write off.

Yup, probably totaled. It looks like a good buy back and part out though.

The other day, I saw a couple of cops pulling an AP2 Rio out of the bushes near my gf's house...totally stripped including wheels and all panels.
Made me sad.

I "can't" because I "don't" want to make my low mileage, excellent condition car into a beater.

It will come out again in due time gentlemen. Weather is starting to creep up into spring territory now, highs in the low to mid 40's this weekend.

If you can pick up the extra tab for the higher COL in SD, I'll pack my crap up this weekend.

I honestly wouldn't want a car with that little mileage and being 17 years old. Seals and gaskets that don't get used, end up leaking.

and he's on something bad with his asking price.
