Yes this car is very unique. there is only 2 in the area right now, this one and a white one. the white one has about 400 horse power. every thing works in the car except the A/C. it needs to be recharged. i assure you this is one of the best merkurs on the east coast.
I guess this was all a statement of opinion in order to try to hook that young kid with daddy's money. I laughed when you said this.

3" full dual exhaust system

boost controller set at 16lbs
ranger roller cam
Manual rad. fan switch
Manual IAC motor switch
full SDS fuel managment system with rich lean knob, the computer is in your hand, you can change every thing by the computer. you can squeeze 50 more hp out of the car.
Non intercooled. you can buy an intercooler for 200$
i am sure there is more that i cant remember.
What is a IAC Motor Switch? Do you turn that off when you dont want the car to idle? Please, help me understand that one.

You spent 10k on this car, and didnt even intercool it? Where did the intercoolers that larry had on the car go? Is this the same motor that Larry had in the car?

heated mirrors, RARE factory cruise control, after market guages, looks really nice, 10 disk cd changer in the trunk, a/f meter, shift light, dash has NO cracks, sun roof, back windows can be opened.

exterior:
Paint is in good condition, still glossy. bumpers are a little bit faded, has some scratches. The hood scoop is painted black now. i also took the merkur sign off, so now no one really knows what it is. its got a cosworth rear hatch with the double wing, grill, european grill and head lights.
xr4ti is the same thing as the mustang svo.

so as you can see, there is more than 10K invested in this car. This is the best car iv ever owned, its got luxury and speed, but i have to sell because i need the money. i am in virginia beach, you can give me a call. my loss your gain. 757 876 5081

maybe trades plus cash. let me know. ASKING $3500!

PS: here is my car for sale on a merkur forum and what the others had to say about it:

When did the cruise become rare? Can you show me one with out the cruise? You're an idiot. Ill give you 800 cash for the car. And thats being generous. Do you even know what the SVO is? Because you obviously dont even know what an Xr4Ti is. Can you please show me where you spent more than 2 grand on the car? Or cant you do that since you honestly dont even know how Larry built the car? There is no where close to 10k in that car pal. And Im sorry that you just publicly admitted thats the nicest car you have ever owned. How many times has that car left you stranded because the clutch cable popped?

I hope you sell it for 3500 and get out of that money pit. But you should have atleast researched the car before making false claims time and time again threw your forsale thread.

Good luck holmes.

I bought this car from larry for 3200$ the way it is right now. and i saw his sierra cosworth clone and he told me it had 400hp not me. and no this car never left me stranded for the month or 2 iv been driving it everyday. and who said I put 10G in it, i said it has that in it. This car was a shell when larry had it, he built it. if you have nothing useful to say, please do not post in my thread . bump

So calling you out on lies threw out your post to keep the face of my fellow posters is not useful?

1. You are asking more than you bought the car for. Gotcha.
2. The horsepower of larry's white car does not go with this thread, but no.
3. You have only had it 2 months?
4. No matter how you say it has 10k in it, you are wrong. Someone is lying to you.


If you were a poster on vadriven, then what I am saying is useful. Becuase you have lied and lied threw out this post and someone needed to call you out.

Once again, good luck on the sale, I just hope you find the idiot to buy it over on the merkur sites, boy those guys are idiots over there. Have you been on Turboford.org to sell it, I would like to see what they have to say about this post.
