I k oe that it cost about $900 to get to San Diego and then you would have to get a trucking quote from there to your location. Shipping to Europe is roughly $3500 last time I did that. Leak down numbers were 2-3% last time it was done and the car hasn’t driven 1000 miles since then so everything should still be tight. The car has no major leaks but on occasion will drip oil very minimally. A little drop here and there
Great looking car. Nice job on the paint. Do you have any idea how much it costs to transport the car from Hawaii to the Mainland east coast Area ? Also, do you have any leakdown test results for the car? Any oil leaks?
That sure is a beautiful color.

I can help in shipping anywhere in the world as I have shipped cars before. Also no history of my accident/rust or damage. Car was very clean when we striped it.
Hopefully it goes better this time around. The car has brought me a lot of joy. Buyer won’t be disappointed. If anyone has any additional questions I’ll try my best to answer as quickly as possible.
Car is amazing! Also something unique is that it has the same production number as steve mcqueens turbo of the same year. Mine is (Car #408) for euro designation And his was car # 408 for US version
Bid to $78K last time.
