Default Look who is selling there ISF TT on Ebay!!

I am sure that many of us have saw this car on You Tube and websites. Thought that this was very weird that this guy is selling this car already after dumping about $30K in mods into it. Its only about 6 months old at the most. Hmmmmm.......something go wrong with that twin turbo setup?

Nice I wonder why he is parting with his car after investing so much.

I think it is a traction problem not HP. I think 500 RWHP will over power any tire that will fit on this car.

Yeah I'm thinking traction and being in Vegas (elevation/heat) are the primary contributors. Would be interested in seeing an actual time slip though.

Do the math how many people have 30k in the bank just to dump in a car, if they have a mortage, utilities, insurance, 401k, food, property tax and a car note. Ok so say they make six figures a year thats alot to spread out on a car that cost 70k, alot of these guys use credit and swipe away and have the hottest car and when the bills start kicking in they try to bail out and sell for the high to recoup the loss. LOL gotta love it.
