Also, I didn't know that the GT scoops actually do something, Im guessing thats the reason for the weird engine cover...

Also whats so good about the tint? Im trying to find some GT marks?

Atleast he kept the original stuff, its not like a EL GT will ever have the same cred as a XY etc etc. Sounds harsh but its true.

thats the Factory EL GT engine cover, which meets up with the bonnet scoop.

He's got all the original parts anyway, so whoever buys it next could return it to normal if they wanted to.

Its very nice, how dodgy is he with all the little keywords down the bottom of his sale. For over 40k I would prefer a BA GT however.

Yeah, it's true though.. you'd have to REALLY love your e-series to purchase one for 40k when you could get a recent GT.

I suppose wait and see whether it sells for that, my sneaking suspicion is it won't.. but hmm.

Need money. Must have GT.
If I owned it, I would return it to stock. It would be good to own a car that wouldn't be criticised for being stock!

People need to realise that buyers are NOT going to pay for the labour you spent etc...

He may have spent $25k on the car since he got it, but he ain't going to make that back...

That would be the "Custom 1 Of A Kind GT Emblem Mirror Tint". I've never been a fan of the ELGT, for $40k I would buy an R8 first.

Limited Edition is one good reason, whack a supercharger on it and its PERFECT. Go and show.
