He didn't build it. I believe he originally bought it from Niko.

Great car regardless - at least he's not parting it out. Hopefully someone in the community picks it up.

Thanks for clearing that up Corbic. I was going to reply in a similar manner myself but was busy earlier.

The work I've done to this car was largely to make it more cool than it was, and to restore it. When I bought it, it merely looked cool from 20 ft. I got it it, fixed a lot of little issues, threw some cool parts on it, and restored a lot of stuff on it. This cost a lot of money to do, but doesn't add much value to the average buyer or onlooker on the internet. However, the average buyer/internet viewer isn't very interested in an S13 that costs more than ~$5,000 anyway. I haven't increased the price much over what I paid for it, even though the difference between when I bought it from Niko and now is several thousands of dollars.

With that said, I am getting plenty of interest in the car. Most are asking to remove simple things like the wheels and seat, which I am willing to do as they are very desirable parts and will sell fast. For anyone that's on the fence about shooting me a PM, don't hesitate if you're worried about low-balling by a few hundred or a thousand here and there. I promise I won't bite.

Your are just not going to find clean cars like this in the states. Hell the OEM lip has to be worth almost $700 anymore, last one I saw was $650 + shipping and sold in two days.

Anyone looking to take a $2,500 KA Hatch, and build a clean, SR powered Kouki is going to spend well more then what you are asking for.
