A few months ago this very car was for sale on the Big Island of Hawaii.  
At the time I didn't realize the ground effects were stock. the car is 
completely set up for autocrossing. emmaculate inside and out.  I 
remember him wanting $6,500 for the car.  Shipping from Kona to Seattle 
or San Fran for a vehicle that size runs around $800.


However, being a three day barge from Oahu to the mainland coast not to 
mention the OUTRAGEOUS shipping (they have a monopoly), I'd look at some 
of those scirocco pages out of southern Cal first.....
