Yup, it's in the mail.. Bought it from a friends brother at work for $6500 with 50 something thousand miles. Pretty sweet car, I just bought it for the heater ..

The interior was down right nasty, took a whole Saturday to completely strip the inside and steam clean it.

Yeah but at least they even fit at all, otherwise I would have $4,000 in wheels/tires laying around.

Some IRS stuff, I really didn't want it but I needed a car with a heater and I knew I could make a buck off of it.

I am going to try and sell the wheels soon.

Car looks decent for right now. Would look freakin killer with the right offset for the wheels and the valence for the rear and a nice clean up job with a full detail.

Yeah the car was nasty when I bought it, I pulled the whole interior out and steam cleaned it already.. Once I get the rear bumper painted I will buff the whole car.

Honestly, I would keep both the car and the wheels. Send them in and have them rehooped or have the offset changed since they are multipiece wheels. Do that with a GOOD drop like QA1 coilovers and some good cut springs in the rear. Sounds like a hack but i know the setup rides good and hooks great on the street and track for not much money. Car would look sick after that stuff.
