How much are you looking to spend? We have quite a few for sale right now, with prices all over the place. I'm located in PA.
Let me know more of what you're looking for, your price range, etc, and I probably have something for you :)

we have a highly modified 96 Vr-4, that puts down around 500awhp, right in your price range. It is PRISTINE!!! A long time friend and customer of ours owns the car, and we are storing it here at the shop for him, to help him sell it (he works a lot, just moved, etc).

We also have a pristine condition, low mileage, southern 97 Vr4, and another gorgeous condition, metallic red/black top 97 Vr-4 for sale.

Shoot me a message if you're interested in any of them. My boyfriend, who own the shop all of these cars are located/being stored at, specializes in 3000GT's and Stealths, and we can do any and all modifications to the car before you pick it up, supply the parts, etc. We're a one-stop-shop, basically :)

Let me know if you're interested, and I'll get you more information about teh cars, pictures, modification list, etc.

You get the idea :) I can get some pictures for you in a few days. I'll be out of town until tomorrow evening.


One of the 97 VR-4's we have is all original, pristine inside and out. red/tan leather. Southern car, 80k and change miles. Flawless. We're asking 18k

The other 97 Vr-4 is a deep metallic red with a black hood and roof (real sharp). Otherwise bone stock as well. ~95k, give or take. Not as perfect overall, but extremely clean, and very solid running and driving. We're asking $14.5k for this one.

I think the 96 Vr-4 is more of what you're looking for, as far as best bang for the buck. The owner is around his 30's, and has owned the car as long as I've known him (since ~2002/2003). And put a lot of time and money into building this car over the years. He didn't skimp on anything, and everything was professionally installed, and tuned. a KILLER deal, no matter what way you cut it. He probably has close to 30k, invested into the car... not including the car itself. And he's always baby-footed the car.... meaning he didn't use and abuse it. He bought it and built it to enjoy, not really race.

i'd like to think the MODS listed above for this 96 fully qualify a engine as (built)

Ah.

Those are nice to have, but not necessary with our engines. our stock blocks, have held 9 second passes, and upwards of something like 800awhp. With the turbo set-up on the 96, with stock blocks, these cars have made consisten 10 second passes.

Pictures are uploading.... I'll post in a few.
