101k miles
I hate this day with a passion. I need to sell the 98 to re-coupe some investment $$. It's the only thing of value I have.
Not much to say about the car. It's a pristine condition worry free 100% stock VR4. Trans shifts absolutely perfect. Motor still has great oil pressure even on the stock gauge! Car tracks straight and absolutely everything works. Even the dash vents look new.
I bought this car last November from the original owner. The car was garage stored and never driven in the winter. He took the car to the same dealership for every (synthetic) oil change (3k miles on average), maintenance check, tune up, full interior, exterior and engine bay detail (2x a year)... It's sick how much $$ this dealer got from this guy. There is close to 75k in this car!
60k was performed at 59k
Clutch & flywheel (OEM) were done at 73k
I just replaced the tires just before NG and these are the 5th set of tires ever installed onto the car.
I also change the oil and filter last spring.
The car saw 2 trips to the drag strip and did 9 passes total. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the first time the car had ever been launched. It ran the times posted in my sig and hasn't been abused at all since. The car trekked thru it without incident. You wouldn't be able to tell had I not mentioned it.
I've use this car mainly for ECU disassembly and kept it completely stock for this purpose. The car was stored in a garage last winter and now it sits under a cover at my apartment. Its not a DD car. I maybe have put 3500 miles on it total. INCLUDING the 1400 mile round trip to and from NG.
I've also replaced every speaker in the car with brand new OEM infinity speakers. The stock tape/CD player was swapped for a newer unit out of an EVO but I will be reinstalling the stock unit for the sale.
The shift knob was also replaced with a brand new Mitsubishi replacement. Not sure if I'll give that away with the car or not. Drivers seat shows a little wear but you can tell the leather was conditioned on a regular basis.
Exterior shows minor wear. One visible ding on the passenger side door. The rest of the nicks you need to hunt for. The flat black trim over the hatch is still glossy and show no sign of fade like you typically see with these cars. Headlights are starting to yellow a little unfortunately though....
That's really all. I'll post pics later tonight.
You will be hard pressed to ever find another 98 in this condition for this price. I'm asking 14k and I'm very firm on this price!
