Does this car hurt anybody elses feelings?

Was browsing ebay motors for a 1g, and happened to stumble across a DSM that made me want to pull my hair out. heres the link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks___1997-Eagle-Talon-Tsi-AWD-Eclipse-GSX-Show-Car-MUST-SEE_W0QQitemZ140271517832QQddnZCarsQ20Q26Q20Trucks QQddiZ2282QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item140271517832&_tr kparms=72%3A727|39%3A1|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid= p4506.c0.m245

I just don't see the demand for cars like this, the giant bench wing, graphics and body kit....excuse me, I just threw up in my mouth a bit. I cannot stand to see a good DSM fall into the hands of Fast and the furious wannabe. Do gotta hand it to him, then engine bay looks nice.

thats what I'm saying on the opposite side of the spectrum is this (huge buy it now price). But it gives me a moderate to average turboner.

Re: Does this car hurt anybody elses feelings?

Yea I thought the price of the 1g was rather outlandish. 35k for a buy it now. I know that there was a lot of money put into it, with ams doing all of the work, but jeez. Who in their right mind would think they could get that much for a 1g.

Re: Does this car hurt anybody elses feelings?

Good luck taking that 1G to a track with a small fuel tank in the interior. That wasn't too smart.

^^ The tiny tank is fed by the stock tank for whatever reason...
But yeah, good luck getting through tech with that.

Re: Does this car hurt anybody elses feelings?

all the 2g needs is some tlc in the body division, i mean it is very low miles and looks like ZERO rust in the engine bay, so if someone could get it cheap enough and spend the time.... and I could see the 1G go for 10-12K tops to someone who has money and LOVES it... i feel it would have been better with a cage in it.
