executor485 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Im looking into buying an 07 Spec B... But probably not soon enough seeing as the prices are still out of my range. I was looking in my general area, and found this car: http://www.subaruofplano.vinmanagersites.com/AutoDetails2.aspx?ID=2353533 The problem is, there isnt anything detailed on this, they just advertise it as a regular Spec B... But there are some SPT and STI and COBB parts all over, but it still looks factory. They are asking 50k for the thing, so its gotta have something special right? If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERLoft Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 HAHAHAHA. Okay, so I haven't finished looking at this thing, and they don't seem to have the specs listed, but $50k? I'm tempted to call and ask I can get some of what they've been smoking. Appears at first glance to have an exhaust, sways, strut tower bar, wheels and tires and a few little bits here and there. But certainly appears to be a stock intercooler (Could be AVO, but I don't think so). And despite the Cobb turbo heatshield, the turbo can't be more than an AVO 380 with that intercooler setup. There's no way that car gets more than the price of a new, stock '08 Spec.B - and even that's probably pushing it a bit. 2013 █S4 - Glacier White - DSG - B&O - Tech Package - Sports Diff - Napa - RS4 Grille - Stasis Exhaust - APR Intake - KW Variant 1 - Stern Control Arms - CR-15 - Stasis RSB - Moog Endlinks - PC Hyper Black Peelers - Deval Front Lip - ECS Rear Diffuser - Carbon Imports Ducktail - ECS Mirror Caps - Relak Paddle Extensions - Autostyle Floor Mats - LED Interior - V1 - Blackvue DR900s - [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
executor485 Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 I'm glad I wasnt the only one thinking they're crazy for throwing some parts on there and charging PREMIUM price. Its no wonder it hasnt moved from the lot. I was gonna call em and offer 30k... lol If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05GT Guru Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 That car would be worth 50k if it had 500-600awhp on pump gas and it was all done correctly, which would mean he had about 30-40grand worth of parts. You never get back what you put into the car, people who try to sell there cars like this 25k-for the car 5k-for custom turbo kit 4k-in heads and cams for a total of 34grand are retarded and the car will sit for years before some rich dumbass buys it without researching. Cars sell for what cars sell, his best bet would be to return it to stock and sell the parts and car seperate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My assumption is they put all those on there to try and make it a "rare item" If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EquinnoxX Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Of course it's worth 50k ... it's got STI door sils ! http://www.subaruofplano.vinmanagersites.com/DealerPicThumb.ashx?Size=480&File=Dealer1772/4S3BL696X73205599_105.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat1USMC Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Thats got to be a mistake! No one in their right mind would pay that... Someone from that area has to call to get the story behind it. If that really is what they are charging, I'd never EVER step foot inside that dealership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawl Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 a dealership did that around here for fits when they were flying off the lots. they didnt charge markups, but they put "effects packages" on them and then padded the price. i saw 25,000 honda fits. which i guess would be proportional more or less to this whopper up there. car for sale.

ViscousSquirrel Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yep, they add equipment then add markup for each piece of equipment. great for poor people with credit... or the idiot that doesn't know what the cars worth and thinks he got a great deal when they lop 5k off the bottom line and he still pays more than the car and the mods are worth. Don't underestimate the power of stupid people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
