Picked it up for $5500. I wasnt planning on getting one till spring but i saw this car at my apartment buiding so i left a note on the car and a couple weeks later he called me saying he was gonna put it away for the winter, but instead he thought hed see what he could get for it. So i jumped on the deal

thats a good price. I'm sure you'll get that thing moving pretty quick. I heard somewhere that those things are evil at the cornering limit. But evil can be fun..

I only really like the MKII's. The MKI is just way to boxey and ugly IMO
