Default Rare car alert!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/222528686656...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

1 of 22 1LE Formulas built for 1992 - the last year of third gen production.
1 of 11 non B4U ordered by SLP for Firehawk Conversion
1 of 6 LB9/MK6 5spd cars built
Only 1 of those 6 5spd cars was 46U/L Medium Green Metallic.

Period correct modifications either add or detract from the value depending upon your viewpoint.

Go get it!

These have really grown on me recently - and that's my favorite 3rd gen year and color combo. Thanks for posting!

The COPO **** is total non-sense but nice car otherwise.

What is there to prove this is one of the dealer lot cars that SLP bought for Firehawk conversion, and why was it not converted? What's the back story?

Could be ambiguous reference and if you misunderstood what I posted above forgive me for that.

11 of the 22 built were B4U, this was one of the other non B4U cars, it was not ordered by SLP, all of their cars were L98's.

Only 68 1LE Formulas were ever built in only 2 of the 5 years of third gen 1LE production. You will be hard pressed to find a more rare third gen in any condition. Bidding is at $7,100 currently with about 12 hours to go.....go get it somebody, I don't need another one!

Car didn't sell on e-bay, buyer contacted me in the last minutes, said he would take $8,000 for it but I'm done buying cars.

If anyone is interested, PM me & I'll give you his number.
