    I need a dd though, would this car be suitable for a daily driver with a little more power, or is it more of a summer toy and store it in the winter? probably a dumb question, but I figured id ask.

    Def a bit on the high end... I'd say around $4-$4500 would be fair.

    Well good luck to him then! It's def possible, he would just have to wait for a pretty naive buyer.

    4-4500k car he would never get 6500k for it unless some dummy wants it bad enough to pay that for it.

    I agree that list of parts is very impressive! I'd like to buy it just for the trans and GenV! This is a perfect example of what I'm preaching. You can buy a true heavily modded car like this and save thousands! A unpainted Ram Air hood is $800.00. A built trans $2000 at least. This car has a built trans, GenV, Ram air hood and intercooler. These mods alone could easily top 5 grand...

    Welp that's just lazy..if you want the car that bad enough you'll make the drive. What's $200 if your wanting to spend $4500 on a car. Hell I'm sure if you offered $4300 he"ll take it and look your back to the original price.

    The problem is though, I want the title in my dads name so the insurance is cheaper. and he isn't exactally thrilled about sitting in a car for a few hours each way "just for a car" he says.

    You gotta expand your range if your trying to find a good car for a great price just staying within the area is going to limit your selection.

    Make a little trip out of it quality time with your dad who doesn't want to do that especially if your driving then he just has to sit and relax.

    My dad drives for a living and anytime he decides he wants to go visit family guess who gets volunteered to drive while he sits and relaxes..yours truly.
