Hello everyone! New Member with Gray Roadster

Hi from Mansfield UK. Loving the colour combo. Over here the S50 and S54 price differently to the American spec engine. My advice would be to swap the wheels for originals and sell yours separately as such a low mileage ///M will fetch top money. People will want it standard and generally will buy it for showing and the occasional drive out.
If you do change the wheels i'd research your market place and go top end on value.

these wheels were modified to match exact offset of this car. center were done in hypersilver to match the roadster wheel. doubt anyone will buy these wheels since it has limited fitment options. if buyer really wants roadstar wheels put back on. i can easily find a set in california. $900 a set. these wheels took forever to find and cost me well over 4k to get finished.

I think we are generally more conservative in the UK than the USA about "styling" extras.

not saying it’s the right thing to do. but at this point. it’s so easy to change out that if they really don’t like the wheels then i’ll switch them out. but roadstar wheels are really easy to get.

Hi and a big from Southport nr Liverpool. Just a point but you mentioned a timing belt change. These motors are chain driven requiring no routine maintenance so I hope your indie hasn't ripped you off!

I agree with Frankie, don't limit your potential buyer with locals only. People interested in a car of that caliper will either come and get it like Frankie did, or send a car hauler to pick it up. When I sold our 62 Corvair spyder, They sent a private hauler to get it to take it back to Kansas City

i thought putting on cargurus and cars.com gets to national buyers also? do i need to be on a different platform?
