it's missing a few things: - coolant hoses start popping off @ 60k miles (there are 8 to replace i think - drop the engine) - coolant tank heats & cracks after 30k miles - front wheel bearings (sharkwerks just made a post) - 2nd-gear pop-out issue - get a boost check - engines are not bullet-proof - check the ECU screws to make sure they were never removed - get computer tested for type 2 revs - and probably a lot more i've forgot - chuck  It's modded as well, just luck of the draw I guess..My turbo only had to have a wheel bearing replaced, plugs , a fuse and coolant line that broke... Minor stuff and was bullet proof so to speak, modded by FVD at stage 3 too... My GT2, 5 years on and off the track, and is ROCK SOLID... Minor maintenance here and there, just had shift cables replaced, everything else sound * knock on wood*... Bottom line is, before a purchase these cars must be checked thoroughly indeed.. BUT, they can check out and in 6 months started having weird/odd failures and or replacements.. You just never know Martin
