PICS: Turbo, Vert, Ethanol Injection, Anyone know the history?

Anyone know the history on this car? It seems very unique. I emailed the seller and he said the owner worked for NOPI. What is it worth? got to EBAY

I would definitely say worth $4500, as long as everything's running decently...
doesn't have to be perfect, but...

I'd say it's worth it just beause it's a pretty clean 'vert.. the turbo puts it over the top though...

It's the only way I'd own a 'vert

Yes, $4500 is about right if the compression and turbo check out OK. It's nice to see the pics of the flaws in the car like the torn top, door dings, cracked seats, etc. You don't see too much of that nowadays.

2 well respected moderators have said it's a good deal; more importantly I said so if you have the cash, get it get it.

Thats definately a deal,it looks like a dealership has it.It states that the motor hasnt even been broke in yet.Definately worth it in my opiniion,even with a couple of flaws.

****, that's the Mazda tII lip spoiler and side skirts! You know what those alone are worth?

That's exactly what I want mine to be and look like when it's done... EXACTLY

Mine cost me a couple grand more than that, and is still stock

Not sure about the $4500. The pictures look good at first, but the closer you look, the more I see "blemishes".
What is the condition of the engine and trans?

I'd imagine that the guy selling it got his GF to point something else.

After all, how many left-handed cameras do you know of?
