I'm sure a test drive and some common sense would reveal its faults. Let's hope it's a different car because I've seen a few dark purple EKs with EK9 kits around Vancouver haha

Looked it up and these only came with the 2.5L 215hp engine. Sedans got the 3.0 255hp. Too bad it's kinda wimpy...

I do love my wagons!

looking closely at the pics... i think you can actually see the wheels in the back of the car

Who cares if someone is trying to flip something. Walmart buys low and sells higher. Warren buffet buys low and sells higher. Everyone here talks about selling their house for more but it's a sin to make a profit on a car.

And it's not purple, it's plum

I find EP3s to be overvalued but I digress.

That's a good price when you compare it to other EP3s, and the K-pro would be simple to remove and resell for $1k, for someone not planning modifications that make serious use of it (its not worthwhile having with only i/h/e, in my opinion).
