AND if the market value is going up so much for TIIs then why didn't FrestyleFC3S' S5 TII sell immediately? Buy it now price of $7K, and it has no longer in production Watanabe wheels, not to mention a ported and modded 13BT by ITO and a ******* HALTEC!!!

its like saying FDs go up in value and are so precious, meanwhile

it takes forever for people to sell them

On this particular car, I don't really believe what is said about the HP. Will an HKS installed really jump the horsepower up to over 300 at the rear wheels? Did I miss something? And at only 7 pounds boost? And the statement that the Hks is unconnected 99% of the time because the "car is plenty fast without it" makes no sense to me. Sounds very fishy. Why would you not want to keep it connected?



Also the fact that it was rebuilt at 78K could be a problem at least to me. That says to me that the car has been run very hard and may be abused. I know, I know, these cars get rebuilt at different times for a lot of different reasons but for something that is so stock, I think it has been abused.



I know the Tii usually needs rebuilding sooner than an N/A but.....

yeah, the engine bay looked completely stock, i saw no "2 gauges" on teh interior anywhere, and he didn't say anything about the type of exhaust upgrade on the car.



i dont think 300 hp on 7 psi with stock or "Vato-zone" exhaust upgrades is possible. if it was, mazda would have done it in the first place.

I didn't even read it!



I thought it was some old dude selling it, it looks like it's in mint stock shape.



I guess it's some kid talkin' smack?

Actually there are two gauges in the lid of the ashtray right behind the shifter but still, I think the BS is a little deep in the description of this car.

maybe the guy's HP claims are estimates, who cares anyhow- its not

he also says it has a black interior, that thing sure looks grey to me
