Technically the SH-AWD version was the more performance oriented one. 3.7L vs 3.5L of the FWD version

Not much money for a hilarious amount of fun (and headaches)... interior needs a bit of love but the outside looks nice: https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/...735050219.html
$3900 for a Dodge Stealth R/T TT

they were a bit better supposedly.
No type S variant, but i believe they did an A spec version on the side.
base, premium, tech and elite packages. 6MT came with SH AWD only

I read extensively about the issue and others' experiences when I had a 2002 CL a couple years ago. Otherwise a fantastic car!

Saleen made 88 focus examples like this, so it’s pretty rare. Issue is, at the time it was almost $30,000usd (8k more than the SVT) yet still was based on the Lowe zx3. So 5 spd instead of the 6spd, rear drum brakes etc. They all came with a nitrous setup but uninstalled. Electronics were all there but you had to fill the bottle and setup the main lines (about an hour of work) but would void your warranty. Even the big scoop is non functional (lifted from the mustang gt).
This example is straight from the saleen factory, including paint, that ugly graphic, those awful wheels etc. If someone was a ford collector it would be a pretty great time capsule and conversation piece. Otherwise as an actual car I never ever would.

Someone is giving away their blobeye STI with 100xxx Quote: |
Looking to give this away to someone in need. Recently just bought a new car and know the struggle of needing a car and not having the money. It runs great, just got new tires for it in August. New windshield wipers, got a full interior clean done as well as engine inspection with oil change and all necessary liquid top ups. The full works. The only problem is the horn doesn't work and the radio could need a replacement. If you feel this is the perfect car for you, please send me a paragraph explaining why you need the car and I will pick my favourite answer. |
If this real, this would be a dope great act of kindness. (Also a pretty good buy if you need it)

Very kind indeed ... he could probably sell it for market value and get 2 decent Civic/Corolla to give away ... just being nitpicky ... other 2004 STI is listing for like $15K.
