basically went out to by a spyder eclipse turbo, dealer was a dick, met this other cool dude tryin 2 sell his car, he said he was goin 2 the next dealer over, so after I got rejected, I went to his place, and somehow now I have this  
It is more of a you have to see to believe, new paint job, only 95k on the clock, everythings in great working order, I’m going to try today to use as a bargaining tool,if not, hey I somehow have a vette!

wasnt compleeeeeeetely random, my eclipse is shot, needed a new car, the spyder is the same as every other dsm, the 4g63, and besides, Many people do the swap to the 4g64 engine thats in the non turbos, turboing them is pretty nice from what I hear, not the 420a, INFORMATION b4 u post , dont really care for the vette other than looks, a little bit of power, just owning a vettes good enough for me at the time, until i can get what i want

it was a gst spyder, im a fan of dsm’s this one was a 99 from a dealer, ran great, looked awesome, drove fluidly. I bought the vette, I needed a car, this one was in great shape, litereally. The price was more than affordable, and I am going to try to use it as a bargaining tool, as in trading my 97 eclipse and the vette for the spyder, hope that cleared things up lol. to answer newmans question, i want that spyder, or im saving over the winter for an evo, either way, i cant complain now
