#32122, "Dying Breed"




          

I came across this GSX and just had to post it. It's not everyday you see a completely stock 2G GSX. If I had tons of money laying around I would buy it, keep it exactly how it is, and only drive it on the weekends when the weather is good out. We're not going to see many more of these as the years go by.

Theres one on craigslist around here, a 98, bone stock w/ 67,000 miles for $9800. Amazing price, but the owner is an older man, who referes to it as a GSTX, so it sounds like he has no idea what it is, or how rare it is. I checked it out about a week ago, sure enough it was a GSX. Im frantically trying to sell my truck lol

edit: come to think of it, im going to start a save the gsx program. every memeber on here donates a dollar to my program, we will save a precious GSX, think about it..... emoji

they have been trying to sell that gsx for like 2 months. i wish i had the money for it. they had it sold once but the buyer backed out.

** Current status: 9 bent valves. and it only had 6,000 miles on it. i hope the replacement goes well. **

Lots of expensive parts, and still slow! Oh wait, it has to run to go fast.

Damn, where's $12k when you need it? I would only change the intake, exhaust, springs and stereo, everything else would be left bone stock

Edit: wheels too, I'd put my Evo 8 wheels on

I thought it was in perfect condition until I looked at the pics again and noticed that it has really bad condensation on the right headlight. It would suck having to pay Satan $600 for a new set of oem headlights but I think I would do it just to keep everything stock.

One of you guys has to have 12k laying around or has to have a rich mom and dad that would buy it for you as an Easter gift. Buy it before it's too late. emoji

It also seems to be missing the plastic caps for the side bumper cutouts.

I saw that last week. I wanted to go look at it since its only 45 mins away from me but i cant stomach paying that much got a gsx that has been wrecked before. The hood has clearly been repainted. I love sodium lamps, they show everything.

GSX. they don't have them because it would block the airflow to the intercooler n00b

There's a dealership, its basically a small office with a HUGE warehouse attached to it. There must be a million dollars worth of cars in that warehouse, and its about 10 minutes from my house. Long ago when I wasn't broke I went and looked at a red GSX they had, MINT condition 48k on the odometer. I look to the left and there was ANOTHER mint silver GSX with aftermarket rims.

They had porches, ferraris, couple other rare tuner cars.

You know, it seems like for years i've had the exotic motors specials page bookmarked and always looked at it. I never took the time to look through their actual site. pretty awesome.

My gsx turned out to be a gst. A poor, poor gst so far gone that it wasn't worth saving. emoji

I hate people who dont know what they are talking about.

Long story short:

Brandon wont be rocking a 2g gsx for a loooooong time, if ever.

There is a wrecked tsi at a local junkyard. AWD. Problem is, it was flipped atleast 3 times and isn't worth fixing.
