$46k FRS - LOL

We all have our own tastes and opinions on what we each think looks good when it comes to cars in general. I'm not into body kits but that's whatever. I found this while searching for an Ultramarine...

Yes, there is a turbo, coilovers, wheels, etc. but for almost 50k... damn.

That's about what it would cost to do it yourself... to do a rocket bunny kit right with the kit, wheels, suspension and paint you're looking at 15k for that alone. 20k for that + a turbo kit... now you're seeing how much money people are blowing on these things.

Yup, all power to you if that's what you want to do. Not my money.

If I were to go this route in the far future, I'd prefer to do it myself instead of buying one with everything on it... but I can see why there are others who don't want to install all those parts (especially the body kit) own their own. It would be a lot of work.

time for dealers to know what it feels like when they cant get back the money that was put in to a car for mods hahah.

$25k car + $10k mods =/= $35k value

Pure speculation on my part - The person who owned this car probably financed it, put all those mods on, then couldn't afford the car anymore. So, they had to give it back. Who knows.

It's going to sit there for a while, unless some person with cash to blow comes along and picks it up.

Just a little background on the vehicle. Car was purchased stock with nothing on it. Dealership had the Greddy kit installed by the body shop. The turbo kit was installed by Drift Office.

The seller probably only got 15-20k for it unfortunately. I wonder if someone will buy it for that price?

The warranty tab on that page shows what seems to be the standard Scion warranty, but I'm guessing that can't be correct. However, I'd imagine the dealer would have to at least provide some bare bones warranty. I've never bought a used car, let alone a modded one, though.
