My S4 SPORT is indeed a sport, 5lug with heavy duty suspension, n/a manual with a sunroof.
I went and had a peek at this vert last night... ok so here is the revised good and bad...
Good:
only 88k miles on it
its all there
new top (even tho it seems to have been installed poorly... lol the window seal seems to be inside out...)
complete interior thats in good shape
BAD:
he swapped the left front fender to his other vert and now its got 1 red fender on a black vert lol...
all the wheels dont match...
exhaust is shot
drivers seat is WORN to high hell and its got seal issues (windows and all the other glass)
drivers side window motor seems to be poop
may not have blown the motor, looks like an oil cooler line broke
VERDICT:
That bitch is coming home with me,
hehehehehehehe I will put the pics of it when i get it to the house up =)

hahah nice, yeah the bad really isn't too bad at all, driver seats get worn, and no one rarely keeps the stock exhaust anyhow, window motor isn't to hard to do yourself, wheels and fenders you will be able to find through the forum for good prices.
Sounds like you made out well..

ummm... no. you take things way to seriously! I have owned a 91 vert for 5 years now. Its has leather seats, slow as *****, and has more body roll then a school bus. verts are the buick of the rx7 world. but they are still amazing.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
Explain please. My quick cell phone calculator math agrees with Juiceh - s4 Coupe faster than S5 Vert - stock for stock of course

at the time s5 vert mods: tii drive train, 2.5 exhuast w/ no cats.
s4 coupe mods: spark plugs wires incorrectly installed, low compression, and a one armed driver.

Pics and broken things...
Some pics first.. then lol
get this,
some "Mechanic" the guy took the car to or perhaps from the previous owner... "Repaired" one of the oil cooler lines by... lol... cutting a piece of tubing and hose clamping either side of the broken oil cooler line to it... ROFL... No wonder it broke. That's ok, I have spares. PICS!

ROFLMFAO, yeah tell me about it It's definantly an 88. (Title says and so does the door). Tis cool still. BUT... It's going to be a little worse before it gets better... See the white 86 in the garage in my pic. Thats my 86 sport that I am going to steal body parts from. So I will have a white front bumper, white left fender, and a silver back bumper. ROFL its gonna look pretty much like a Hooptie until I get the paint in that I ordered, ugh, then I have to prep her for paint. Gotta be real careful because the top is brand new and I don't want to ruin that! Also if anyone has a spare vert bbs wheel, I would love to have it! (missing 1) just PM me or see my Wanted thread in classifieds... (yes I am keeping the car black, I love black with black top. I really want to paint the rims black too with silver lip... )
I'll try to post some bigger pics soon! Thanks for the comment!
