They are coming soon. I've been having some health issues and it's hard to get outside.

Why? Does this mean I'm asking for to much money?

Good luck with the sale. I'm not a fan of some of the exterior mods, but they can easily be removed and it looks like a clean ride otherwise!

Does anyone think this is priced too high? Opinions pls. I won' t be offended.

An asking price is just what it is; an asking price. Take any offers into consideration. I know you put a lot of $ and effort into the car, but it's going to target a VERY, VERRRY niche market. You may wanna pull the nitrous out of the car and sell it separately. I believe you'll make a few bucks extra for it.

If the car is a primo example, I would expect to see in the range of 7-7500...But to me, It would have to be EXCEPTIONAL. It certainly looks like a cool car for the price! If I bought it, I'd probably white everything out, do a marauder style grille, MM wheels, and call it a day =)

Thank You for the advice, I greatly appreciate anyone honesty.

I'll take the nitrous out, put the stock hood back on, put the stock water pump back in and sell the car without the patriot heads for $7500 or leave the fiberglass hood on and give the stock hood to the new owner. I'm flexible. I'll even keep the after market wheels and tires and sell it for $7000. Numbers can always be worked. This car has never been abused or taken to the track. The hardest it has been run was four runs on the dyno.

It was parked in the back with the other "Non-Marauders" next to Paul Miller's/05CrownSport's car.
