Are you talking about "rzograbian's" yellow salvaged car that he was selling? It has a Veilside body kit.

Nah, that was me that bought Romans' salvaged yellow 95. And yea, I knew it was a bad title when I bought it. Figured "what the hell?", I wasn't gonna get rid of it any time this eon, so the loss I'd see if reselling would never happen and I feel I got a good deal. Turned out to be in better shape than I had expected. Pics didn't do it justice. Considering it has 94k miles, it runs pretty strong, but I don't have a boost guage yet to see the pattern. (But it's probably popping Viagra every day to keep goin.) New motor as soon as I find a money tree. Came with the body kit, yellow, filter, and welded on muffler. I've since got a short shifter and boots from Gotham and full stereo. First FD I've owned, but not driven. All I can say is I'll never go back. More fun STOCK than an AWD TT 95 Stealth I owned a while back puttin out around 400hp at the motor.

No the one he bought I believe is salvaged as well. It was MB but repainted yellow, not CYM I think. The owner swapped everything with JDM parts including bumper and spoiler. The wheels were 3 spokers. Looked like a nice car, besides the salvaged title. Everything looked brand new.
