Hello folks,

As many of you have followed along with the build of "Howard" my pure silver 2007 Cooper S, you may have also understood that I ordered a Clubman to eventually replace him. Well I thought the time was going to be farther in the future, but a little birdie phoned and said I MAY be getting a Clubman S a bit sooner than I thought. SO good news bad news type situation here. I am sad to see Howard go but I am excited at the thought of another project car coming up very soon. (Also, I still have the GP, the 02 CooperS and we have the Mellow Yellow R56 around the shop as well. So no lack of motoring excitement around me!)

Here are the details on the car:

Questions or comments: Please just let me know! Again, I am only happy if this car goes to the right buyer that can appreciate it for what it is and how it was assembled!

Thanks again!

 

PM sent about guidelines.

 

geez........since when are you the hall monitor?

 

JustJay: Sorry if I have violated something. I am anxious to get the car moved, but the price is truly negotiable. As I mentioned in the post, depending if a potential client wants something added or removed would determine the price. Also, Portland Lamborghini / Gran Prix Imports will be determining the final price. Can I get a couple day reprieve until they determine that? Or if not I guess you can take this down. But really don't think I did any great injustice to the community here. But you are the mod!

Thanks for the heads up on the error.

Chat soon folks!

 

what...you're sellin him!!!!......I'll take just the boost gauge

 

Yeah like I said it is bittersweet letting him go. I want to keep him, but I have a Clubman coming right around the bend, I still have the GP and the 07 mule and the 02 mule. So I have a bunch of Motoring still to do!

I will bounce back to the GP for a bit and do more mods and DIY's with it. Then get back to the R56 market right after that with some other fresh parts. So PLEASE don't think I am going anywhere.

Plus I got a call a minute ago from Gran Prix and apparently someone has already inquired about the car!

Thanks again everyone!

 

I didn't know JustJay was a mod.....?

I thought he was justjay........................................... ............lol

 

 

Price will be on www.gpimports.com website ASAP. Along with addl. photos etc.

Thanks for the interest folks!

 

BUMP! Here it is HERE!

 

Damn dude, if I hadn't bought mine a few months ago, I'd be all OVER this. Sad to see Howard go though. :(

 

SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!

To a VERY nice gentleman! Older fellow, bought his last new car in 1983. In fact he traded it in on "Howard". a 1983 Porsche Carrera. Also, silver exterior with black interior. So we can all be assured that Howard has a VERY permanent home!

Thanks to everyone that called, e-mail and looked at the car. I know we sold a few more parts through Gpimports.com as a result of the "test-drives".

Thanks again and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

Great news, congrats!!! I knew there was no way Howard could stay on the lot for long.
Any estimates on when you should have the R55?

 

How much for the Porsche???
