Anyways, one owner, a bunch of maintenance, and very few miles later the car is now in my hands, however due to some complications, the vehicle now HAS NO TITLE. For a more detailed explanation as to why see here: http://www.nyspeed.com/showthread.php?242296-Lost-Title-Question.
Ive owned it since March-ish and since then have only drove it a handful of times at my friends airport which it is stored at. The JDM STi spoiler and Stromung exhaust alone are worth $1,200 new so I think this could be a great parts car or something you can just beat the poop out of on some property. Despite the thread above, the car is actually in pretty decent shape and I honestly would love to keep it. Just dont have much use for it anymore.
Some Highlights:
80kish on the motor (runs very strong)
150k-ish on the body (havent been at the car in while)
JDM STi spoiler and Stromung Exhaust
Short throw shifter
02 WRX Struts and Springs (lifted)
New rear pads/rotors.
New both rear struts and mounts.
Newer general articmaxs that have about 5000 miles.
FWIW it passes inspection but the CEL for the secondary o2 comes on still because of the exhaust.
Windshield seal leaks on the drivers side. Could glue or seal it
Im not sure hes getting my messages. He hasnt posted since I started upping the heat and I know he was talking about moving out of the area but who knows.
I still say post up the username. Regardless, I think it’s a goddamn shame that a local guy can’t help out a fellow forum member. This could be a great winter beater for years to come. So annoying.
Nope, I guess it changed hands before moboost picked it up. Some lesser known forum memeber I guess. If I was in Buffalo I would have seriously looked at this car. I’m annoyed as hell right now.
Txt sent. It is NOT a “lesser known” member so he might just not have read his pm’s. Seemed like a good guy from the interactions I had with him and hes not a scumbag by any means.
He says “I am not on there much. He should have my number.”
Appreciate the support once again guys, And ill just go on the record as saying im not driving any of this. But yes he did seem like a cool guy hence why I was so confused about him just “disappearing” but I do not however have his number anymore…
Also for the record im still considering selling the car title or not, so im hoping this doesnt sound just like a cry for help. Itd just be nice if I could sell it as an fully useful car lol.
Idk if that was directed at me or not. As ive stated several times between the two threads now: I am embarrassed and accept full responsibility for the loss of the title, and based on past convos with the PO, I got the indication that he was done dealing with me. I decided I rather just take the hit on the car rather than start a whole witchhunt for the guy but it looks like I couldnt avoid it anyways.
Id really hope everyone is looking at this objectively rather than just assuming the PO is at fault here. It really could just be a hang up in communication but the point is I need to move the car from its current location and I rather have someone come buy it than have to trailer it out of there and store it.
