Re: thoughts on this car?
Contact me and we can set up a time and put the car on the dyno along with the seller's permission... At least I can check for you whether the car was properly tuned and if it is running healthy.

Re: thoughts on this car?
I can tell it has a Chinese/eBay special wastegate and blow off valve, no idea about the manifold, turbo, fuel system, or engine management...
at the very least have Tony go over the car and verify the engine is healthy, tuned properly, and the setup uses quality parts (which I highly doubt)
based off the overall condition of the car along with the "modifications" I doubt this car is anything more than an eBay/craigslist build using cheap knockoff parts honestly.
especially not for 6k.

Re: thoughts on this car?
thank you guys! my first post went extremely well, I'm very grateful for your opinions. I've been looking more into this clean SiR now, it is closer to my location and looks to be in very good condition.

the ad is in french but in short, the description says that he is the original owner, even has the original papers, 8 wheels w/ tires including the 17' ones in the pictures. google translate can make sense of pretty much the whole thing if you please.

Do these cars go for that much more up there? I did the conversion rate too. If that's the case buy clean car down in Fl and drive them up. haha I wouldn't pay that much for it.

Re: thoughts on this car?
well I've seen ones like that, very clean ones with low KMs go for a about 5-6k. there's others with about 200k+ that go in the 3s and 4s but they're in much sketchier condition lol the SiR is pretty uncommon here, about 120 showed up on kijiji when I searched my province
