Jon is right. I would at a minimum do that. Wheels always get a decent resale especially some Advans.

J, what are your specs on the Advans? I've got a cousin in the market for some wheels for his STI.

Definitely man...the wheels are currently already "technically" sold to a local friend.
He's just waiting on me to shit or get off the pot.

Does the roots charger from my V fit? Or naw...the LS motor alone might be enough for her. LOL

You sir, are a cock.
but you're right...although you're forgetting the aspecs I still have. Just need to either throw TPMS on them or price the car accordingly.

Well I didn't really want your stupid wheels anyway.

They're ugly and stupid and they look bad too.

LOL...no, not it's not...the V is.
Cujo, he's been pestering me for a while! Plus, local...although nothing is set in stone, I'm telling you, they aren't even for sale.
Although parting could be great...sometimes if you find the right person, you can sell the car as a package deal for a number that'll make you happy.
SOOO...that said, I hope to try and do that first before deciding to part out.

Only thing is that the Porsche engine issues are always in the back of my head. One of the reasons I sold my 911 Cab. Even with the newer engine the thought was always back there. At least with the S2000 you have Honda reliability (from when Honda was pretty much bulletproof) and with the Elise you have Toyota engine/drivetrain.

I know not all Porsche's have issues so I haven't completely ruled out a newer one from what i had... but still...

Yeah, I don't even know why I *think* I want them... I'm not looking for dark wheels, the 10-spoke isn't my favorite design, and the offset is actually a little too much for what I want to do.

But on the other hand, they're authentic. So...

And then I'd probably just flip them locally, because F shipping.

LMAO...well, I'd want to sell them to someone that lusts after them since they're a discontinued model.

Funniest thing...and maybe I'm delusional...
but you know normally you drive around and you see a bunch of cars that are faster and or more expensive and you're like...yeah this car is okay for what it is...
well, I will say in the V...I don't feel that way because it's pretty cool to be driving the big boy on the block...yeah, whatever, it's a dolled up GM but it does kinda represent the best Murrica puts out on an assembly line (my seats were bolted in by hand...can I say the car is hand made like AMG? )...
but there's a certain mystique about it...and it's almost like a secret club because most will think I'm driving my grandpas caddy to pick up a pack of kools...
but the ones that know kinda nod at you like, fkng a...NICEEEEE

Some Camry cut me off in 3 open lanes this morning, then just trudged along slowly. So I go to pass on the right and he's like.. nuhhh uhhhh..
See ya you fucking cuck!!!..

That's one of the perks, not having to follow. I had a Shelby, S8, ATS-V, and an F80 M3 get on it yesterday on my commute home.
They saw me passing them and they were like.. Fuck yeah!! It was a lot of fun running with the pack. We all eventually caught traffic, but it was fun while it lasted.
