Took some pics today of the 500 dollar vert and my good vert :)

Well I landed this 500 dollar beauty on a whim (see the other thread). Anyway the interior is black and in mint condition (except the passenger seat is a bit beat up ... weird that the drivers seat is immaculate. So I'm in the process of swapping the interiors, the trim, the rear bumper and the exhaust, maybe the top but I'm not sure yet. Anyway heres my pics and my cars (2 RX7s and my acura tl type s )





Then I started to swap some of the parts over





And after a fresh bath and a coat of zymol

lol thats what i plan on doing

i figure the following .. i paid 500 bucks for it + 100 for towing (thanks bill)
And I can get the following from it just off the top of my head
1. S5 Tails - 170 Bucks
2. Entire grey leather interior in great condition - 200 bucks (conservative)
3. Black S4 body parts (S5 are on mine) - 150 bucks
4. S5 Aero Black mirrors - 60 bucks

Right there I just made my money back without touching the motor, top, wheels, etc lol

IMO the BBS' look way better..
as a vert owner, i have respect for the wheels that came with the car..
my friend with an 86 coupe just installed the BBS' on his car haha
you could definately sell those for quite a nice sum
i wouldnt mind having a second set haha..
the previous owner of mine obviously was familiar with curbs..

lol

yea i love the stock bbs .. however it sucks they are 15's.
I'm looking around for bbs LM's in 17" to throw on the car or something similar. I'm impartial about the new wheels i got ... but the fact that they are really for fwd cars and don't really go with the lines of the car throws me off from wanting to keep them. (they do have new tires and the bbs tires were about shot on the fronts so in that .. lied my decision).

anyway, these wheels will be for sale soon

$500... score. you swapped out the rims, so you can only tell which is which on the other pics by looking at the fog lights.

Can't really complain, but looks like the previous owner was a ricer who crashed in the front.

What wing is that on the back of the $500 vert? Can you get a closer pic of it?


What was wrong with the parts car vert? It looks like it was in good shape except for the front bumper. I would have just got a new bumper for it and removed the ricer **** and driven the s5 vert instead. s5 vert > s4 vert.

Nowhere in this thread did you mention that until now. But now that you mention those issues I don't blame you at all!
