I'm looking at a 2002 sunset orange firehawk and I was wondering if anybody was close to this lot.

I'm right next door to the dealership! I even know the owner of the dealership and the previous owner of the firehawk!

I can tell you anything you want to know. One owner, never seen winter (slept in a heated garage over the winter), very well maintained, bone stock, never beat. You got a great deal!!!! I believe it has brand new BFGs on it too... The previous owner is one of my best friends. Wish he would kept it but I'm glad it found a good home. Oh yeah it does have an SLP traction control reverse module. I bought it for his birthday cuz he hated the traction control lol. Not sure if its still on the car, if it is it's plugged in behind the tcs button. If ya have any other question feel free to pm me and I can answer them for you. Btw, sorry I didn't answer your pm. I just saw it and this thread too.

Sweet!!!! I begged him to do something simialar but he wouldn't do it. He has a '96 Chevy truck that an unbelievable amount of money invested in it. So all his extra cash went towards that project.

Keep me posted after you do some mods so hopefully I can show him some vids.

No, the previous owner and I tried to sell it privately last year and didn't get any takers. And we recently had a friend open his own dealership so he sold it for him. This car was ordered with every available option except for the auburn diff. It's a great all around car!!!!

Default 2002 Orange WS6 at Rose Motors

This car was for sale last night when I stopped in to look at it. I was told it had a salvage title for some under carriage damage from road debris. Any more to the story on this car?? Thanks

That's sad if it does, looks like a nice car....at least from the road. Good luck getting that price if it does have a salvage!
