 |
|
2001 SS, 6 speed, ZR1 Chrome Wheels, low mileage, stock. Brand new good year Eagle F1's
as you can see, it was the dirtiest f***ing car ON THE PLANET. Thats what I get for having it shipped down from Washington
14,000 Miles... Not bad for a 2001. When it got into Houston, it rolled off the truck with 13,894 and I immediately (after inspection and wash) had to stretch its legs a bit. drained the remaining gas in the tank, and went for a full fill up at a Chevron, premium only, at $2.95 per gallon, meaning I put $42 into my gas tank 
Yes, a penny pic
Isn't that a nice dumpster?

yeah... I realized that when I turned the traction control off, and the rear end actually went the direction it was supposed to
(which was right around to where the front was supposed to be going  )
I'm happy with it, and it's coming back home at the end of december!

Nice find! I've been debating on selling the IROC for a 4th Gen WS6...but then I know as soon as it was gone, not even that bird could make up for it.

worked out ok for me

Cool 
I have the TRAC on the Grand Prix, my version just retards the timing in increments.
There are a few dealer SLP Brochures kicking around in my files, I can see if I can dig em up if you dont already have them, they are 2 sided color sheets showing the features of the SLP SS. |

thats weird...
the ARS in the SS basically has a vacuum line that pushes the gas pedal back up into your foot no matter how hard you press it... but you can atleast turn it off and on...
I don't have any SLP brochures, those would be badass to have

Now that's a nice looking 4th gen. 
Out of curiosity, how much did this little milk run end up costing you? |

16k and about 900 for shipping then some TT&L
though my taxes on it were quite slim as I traded in the tC and just paid the difference (got 14,500 for the tC when I only owed 9500 )

Great find man! I've never been a big fan of the 4th gens in general, but I think you changed my mind for that one! It looks so hot!  I wanna go for a ride!

only a year old, had 12k on it, and was in damn good condition.
however, I think I came out on top with this deal
they didn't even sell it to anyone, some girl who works at the dealership bought it before they had the chance to put any word out
to be honest though, a 5 spd black tC is pretty hard to find, at least here in Houston and the surrounding areas.... a 5 spd tC in general is pretty rare, none of the scion dealerships have any

Sort of like a meticulously restored Yugo. Yeah it's rare, but who cares? Anyway, if that's what people want, it's a good thing you came out ahead. It's pretty rare to even break even off a newer car like that. |
