yeah that guy has no clue.. i went in there to check it out when it was N/A and he wanted something like 9 grand for it with a battered interior, and f**ked up paint, and he was REAL adamant about it being a BT1, cause that was his justification for it being 9 grand... then the following dialogue took place: me: '9 grand?' him: 'yeah its a bt1' me: 'its non turbo' him: 'yeah but its a bt1' me: 'regardless, its still non turbo' him: 'yeah but its a bt1' me: 'theres a f**ken n/a engine in it' him: 'yeah but its a bt1' apparantly its got some $6000 jatco transmission in it or something... whateverrrrrrrrr

This car is a hacked up peice of crap. The dash has a million holes in it from where the guages were, the interior is shabby. The rear parcel shelf has massive holes cut in it. looks like 2 holes were cut for subs and the 6x9 holes cut also. I asked the guy if the car came with a rwc and he said it did. Then i pointed out the parcel shelf and he asked me to leave and not waste his time?!?!?!?
