FS: June 2007 COTM - Guy's 2003 GT 11K miles $9500
Update - Car is not for sale at this time.
Over $35,000 invested, including the initial cost of the car (I'm the original owner). I'm asking $9,500 or better offer. No trades, sorry.
This was originally envisioned as a turbo project, and would be the ultimate starting point for someone who is so inclined to finish it. Parts and mods...
Intake/Engine/Exhaust:
Injen RD/K&N hybrid WAI
ported & polished heads
RPW stage I turbo cams

ARP rod bolts & main studs
ACL bearings
entire bottom end balanced and engine build by LAM Engines (Kenosha, WI)
Invidia N1 cat-back exhaust
Deyeme Racing firm F & R and flex side motor mounts
black silicone engine hoses
B&M oil cooler custom-mounted behind driver's side front "vents"
B&M power steering cooler custom-mounted behind passenger's side front "vents"

Unorthodox Racing 9.5lb flywheel
Clutch Masters FX300 clutch
Quaife LSD
- tranny assembled by GT Transmissions (Racine, WI)

Hawk HPS brake pads
stainless steel braided brake lines (from RRE)
painted stock calipers & torque mounts (black)
Wheels/tires:

Exterior:
Shine Street 4-pc aero kit (moulded to body)
Philips 4300K HID headlights
SilverStar fog light bulbs
euro-clear front corners w/ stealth bulbs
Grillcraft black 5-pc grill kit with vents cut out
debadged V6 emblem
35% side & rear window tint
Mitsu aluminum fuel filler door
diamond-clear rear corners w/ LED marker bulbs
clear 3rd brake light w/ LED bulb

Interior:

Check the pictures below for current mileage (just over 11K); there is currently less than 2300 miles on the engine after it was modded and dropped back in. The balanced bottom end combined with the lightened flywheel makes for quick rev-up and the powerband is very linear. I never had it dyno'd but real potential lies in the FI-ready engine mods; right now I would say it's only slightly stronger than your basic intake/exhaust mod. The front lip has some paint peels in it and the front bumper cover has some rock dings; also the passenger-side skirt's moulding has cracked right behind the front fender... the pics show the story, please look carefully.
I can take specific pictures for interested parties. The interior has the usual dings for roughly a year of daily use, but is pretty much immaculate otherwise. No smoking of any type was ever done in the car.
Please direct inquiries to my PM or e-mail me directly at geriksn@hotmail.com. I live in SE Wisconsin for those that want a personal look or a test ride.
Thanks for looking. IMHO, this is a pretty good deal. The suspension is fully adjustable, so daily driving is no problem, but can be dialed in for very capable handling. The ecu hasn't been touched, and I would venture to say even minor tweaking would improve the current NA set-up, but like I said earlier, the motor was built for FI, and will support up to 500 hp based on my research here on the boards. The tranny mods should handle that amount as well.

The plan is to move on to AWD or RWD.
