wow! The ultimate toy....

I am regretfully considering selling my FFR. This car is fully sorted and very dependable. I have been a Mercedes Tech for twenty years and poured my heart & soul into this project.

see the Pics here: http://members6.clubphoto.com/alain432724/749568/owner-709e.phtml

When was the last time you drove a car that weighed just over 2000 pounds and had over 300hp?
This one will EASILY brake the tires loose at will, do the 1/4 mile in low 12 second times on street tires, yet gets 20mpg!



I have every single receipt. (don't ask me to add them up )

Has always run on premium fuel and fresh MOBIL 1 every 2k miles.

She currently has just over 9k miles.

Painted chrysler "intense blue pearl" w/ white stripes

Featuring:

15" Halibrand style wheels
SW gauges
sunvisors & windwings
FFR heater
drivers dropped floor
FFR tubular lower rear control arms
FFR authentic "lock out" style shifter handle

Other accessories:

Authentic style- self cancelling turn signal switch

front bumper hole grommets
front vent screens
AC pedal pads

Polished Aluminum Park brake lever

Braided hoses

Other features:

ign switch mounted "in-dash"

Known problems:

1-there is one "star crack" on the pass front fender about the size of a nickel (that no one ever notices,,,, but I know it is there)

2- for some reason, the colder it gets outside the goofier the SW tach behaves. When cold, it wants to read about 1000rpm high unless you tap on the face of it?



titled in Kansas as a 99 "specially built vehicle", insured for 35k fullcoverage at 500 bucks a year.

I am not looking forward to letting her go, but it is looking like I am going to have to.

The price 30,000. MBZ trades considered
