It’s not my thing but as most project cars are basically worth what you can strip and sell them for I think this one might be NP. The kit starts at $15k without the engine and gearbox. Throw in flares, wheels and brakes and you are pushing $23k without the car. You wont make any money but I bet you could break even.…

Cheating of course. But that’s expected. They likely sold off the 350 that came with it and the tires, brakes, seats (“safety equipment”) don’t fall under the $500 rule. Honestly, it only matters if you get challenged on it.

Man, you break it and then return it saying it wasn’t as good as you thought...harsh.

wtf is whiskey and ginger beer? Dark and Stormy is the only correct answer here.

lol, yea it would be nitro on road for sure. Everyone here is massively into the off road electrics but I just can’t relate to them.

Since you still need rules otherwise it becomes Time Attack (which is also awesome) I think you could basically make it a power to weight ratio that must be adhered to (high weight high power vs low weight low power!) and some ratio of mechanical (tires) vs aero grip.

While you had a nostalgic connection to this one, is there a used nitro RC suggestion out there that might be cheaper to purchase / find?

No surprise here. The 510 has been on my list for a long time but finding a clean one at any reasonable price is unheard of. These are $8k-$10k for peoples daily drivers, nothing is low miles and clean.

Paying far more than everyone else here in California. Roads are still crap, people still drive inefficient vehicles.

Californian here. No it wont.

Really? Most people with a soft spot for the H badge would probably argue that the EG / EK body style of the 90s was one of the best ever. The EM1 is also fantastic. 2001 and beyond is when things got boring and weird looking.

Damn, I really think I would rather drop any kind of money on a GSR over the EM1. Its an awesome car and the hype was all about having the first stateside B16A but its not a $25k car.

I had a 2001 Type SH with that same silvery purple color. Great car, great interior (it looks better at night with the amber/green lighting).

Literally no Alfa’s even for sale on carmax. I think it might be another year or two before they are readily available.

Still no Giulia QVs (or any Alfas for that matter) on Carmax. This will be the deal of the century if you can stomach not driving it half the time.

Look, I like M cars as much as the next guy but you really shouldn’t drink their cool aid. They are compared because (at the time) they were the best sedans both marques had to offer. Additionally, they aren’t as far off as all the M3 folks love to claim. Does the S4 have more street compliance than a more track…

Is it really straight piped or is this those magic japanese headers.

340i wasn’t built until 7 years after the S4 of similar vintage to whats being looked at here. Also, no RS4 either. As I said to others, the M3 wasn’t worth $15k more than the S4.
