I know I like mine too...but it will need paint in the next year or 2....Km's are getting high (190,000Kms) I hate the sunroof in it, I think his will be easy to fix since I work at a garage and have a verry smart boss and all the right tools and equipment to find out what is going on...I also have a spare set of injectors if that is the case

Be wise when taking on other peoples projects... Better to have done the whole thing yourself

I'd be leaning towards it, but your gt is nice as well. If its stuff you can fix and you can guarantee the guy did quality work I'd jump on it.

I say keep your car. Sounds like he polished a bunch of turds. He basically powder coated all the old parts. Has problems too? Pass on it

See it in person first, but yes trade. A notch will be worth more in the future and easier to sell!!! And they are cooler to own.

I really like the looks of it....Paint looks great. I really wouldnt worry about those little details you can always take your time to fix them all the right way. Get a chip or tweecer and get the thing tuned, with those mods it should make decent power. Plus it already has all the annoying things done...wheels, five lug, paint, engine bay, 3G alt, E-fan. I think its a good foundation and notches are SICK. I would trade my GT in a heartbeat for a notch. Go for it
