The car has a clear title and registration, the car was re-vinned by the state of GA many years ago due to being a theft recovery and has salvage history which causes a mileage conflict on CarFax as a result. The car was not damaged, smashed, or parted. I have zero doubt in my mind the listed mileage is correct and you won't either after seeing it. The car does NOT have a salvage or rebuilt title or anything of the sort. The title is free and clear with no issues.

Car is tuned well enough to run on the new set-up, but pig rich and not nearly as well as it could be. However, well enough to walk a bolt-on LS1 T/A from a slow roll by about 6 cars easily . Everything is there to do it, I just haven't. You can log with the wideband and LogWorks software and adjust fuel and timing through the MAF Translator and even more so on the chip through the ScanMaster. WideBand is completely installed minus the calibration switch, something that won't take more than 30 minutes or so..but I'm not sure if I'd want to mount the switch or not so I'll let the next owner decide.


Here are pics taken 10/26/2009 showing the condition of the car.

More pics on next post.

___________________________________

I'm asking 17.5k. However, I understand the economy and car market and am open to offers...
I'm motivated to sell it and need the money, so don't hold back if you're interested.

I'd prefer not to trade. However, I would consider cash + trade for my car...but, like I said- I need money so the more cash the better.
I'm looking to downgrade as far as a weekend car goes and would prefer something valued at 5-7k or less + cash.

Please send e-mail in place of PM if interested, it's hard for me to check all the boards I have the car on often. Thanks!

This is seriously the nicest example of a regal, let alone, GN I've EVER seen.

OMG! What a great car for the money!

Good luck with your sale! I wish I was in the market for a cheap muscle car because there's nothing out there nicer!


God da#m

Was a super nice day out today so I took it out for some cruising. Put about 100 miles on it with everything from back roads to traffic to highway driving. Car did great and performed with no issues.

Still for sale or trade, taking offers.

Oh well, car is now on eBay. Has a reserve, but a good bit lower than the listed price in this thread.
