I recently have had a huge craving to get a 20th. I am looking to buy and am serious. Any color will suffice! The only request is it has relatively low mileage (preferably below 35k). I can have cash on hand and eager to give it to people.
SoCalEuro to the rescue!

Although the mileage is higher than you are looking for, my JB is still on the market. These miles are freeway miles from a longish commute that I had with a former job.

I need to sell this baby.
Price is negotiable.

I'm just worried about the turbo needing constant maintenance. Which is the exact opposite of me getting away from my vr6 breaking down all the time. In your honest opinion, what would the care be for the engine. I've had horrible problems with my vr6 and the engine is the last thing I want to be dealing with on a "new" car.

Funny though, my CA license plate is "PWN VTEC", glad I have a friend.

well apr makes probably the most reliable kits on the market but it also depends on how hard you drive the vehicle, the kit has 2k miles on the car right now

What type of issues have you been having with your VR? They are usually thought to be one of the more bullet proof motors.

Crankshaft crapped out on me at 65k miles and destroyed 5 pistons and almost everything inside. Had to rebuild engine. Tensioner was weak (which is common however with the vr), had many oil leaks and coolant leaks throughout its life.
Just like trying to teach a handful of monkeys manners, it's been a pain. Finally its okay now but I am just sick of it after cramming money into it.

Wow surprising to hear about all those problems. I guess I have been pretty fortunate at over a 100k with only minor stuff then.
