SW-CHKWhy we picked it
  • The narrow-angle VR6 growl, entirely stock exhaust
  • Period-correct BBS mesh wheels with fresh rubber
  • Two decades of records in a three-ring binder, no joke
  • Timing chains done at 102k by the previous owner, receipts included
SW-INTWhat we did on intake
  • Cooling system refreshed at intake; the VR6 weak point, handled
  • New motor mounts; shifts and idles like it should
  • Minor lacquer checking on the roof, photographed honestly
  • Sold with a fresh Missouri inspection
