Now THAT is what I was getting. The SLS is a nice bullet point, but the engine/tranny combo is the only real value with the car.
Cloth interior is beyond gone. You touch it and you can feel the hardened fiber stuffing cracking, plus the cloth if very brittle.
The manual climate is cool, but if car is being trashed then it is too much of a hassle.
The SLS could be pulled off, but the value is minimal except for somebody needing components.
But that drivetrain is the lifted skirt and perfumed inner thigh of this car......
