opinions on a possible trade

Post by dank(r/t) » Mon Nov 16, 2009 3:52 am

i've been looking for a blown 1gn recently, fate so has it that a guy in my town has one.

the car's pretty solid, i know the previous owner, but the current one is having troubles selling it because it is modded.
Mod(s)
*Suspension*
-KYB struts
-Eibach pro-kit.
-Suspension techniques front+rear sway bars
-Fully poly bushings through out suspension

*The engine*
-2.0l DOHC w/ about 30k on it.
-BRAND NEW clutch
-SRT ported turbo
-3in turbo-back, no cat, no muffler
-Crane turbo cams
-Diamond .020 pistons
-Eagle rods
-Modern performance 60mm throttle body
-Spearco front mount core w/ custom end tanks
-HKS SSQV
-manual boost controller
-Dasmopar map clamp tuned at 17psi(Awesome AFR's)
-BEGI FMU
-Lorenzo fuel rail, Stg "0" injectors, return line
-AFX Underdrive Pulley
- 3.55 Transmission
-Brand Spankin' New Alternator belt
-Brand new NGK 3330 BCPR7ES spark plugs gapped to .032
-Brand New Bosh Wires
** Stiff mounted so it Will Vibrate a little **

The Bad:
- Speedo doesn't work, needs new Plug for Tranny

i'd be trading for my 2g r/t. my car's in pretty good condition, bone stock despite mopar springs. physically really good, just some paint chips/wear from being 8 years old. 90k miles.



i need opinions. i feel like i'd be happy, but i could get something better for my car.

As long as that 1gen is rotted out, crap falling apart that he neglected, etc... I'd probably do the trade.

^ Thank you sir. If the 1st gen ISN'T like I stated, then I'd say it's a solid trade.

Not bad, IDK that I'd straight up trade my newer car for an older one, but it seems like it's been built up pretty thoroughly. If you really want it go for it. My dislikes are: that raped front bumper...eww, those ugly wheels, and that pinstripe that doesn't line up with itself.

I just figured you were looking at it from the other guy's perspective! :lol:

the thing is, he needs money and he's having a terrible time selling it, people around here don't respect neons (like most people) but i figure he'd have a much easier time selling my neon over his.

so i get a modded 1gn, and he get's money
