FS (USA,PA): Swapped Caged 1998 RS

Regretfully I am selling my RS. It has been a great and fun car for me for the last 5+ years, but life is getting in the way and forcing a sale (new house, starting a family, etc.).

I used the car as a daily driver for several years and also for autocross and hillclimb. It is caged and logbooked and is very competitive in SCCA SM class. Lots of upgrades and I have meticulously maintained the car. I know this car isn’t for everyone as the cage does limit its use somewhat, but it really is a great car that you can drive all week and race on the weekends. I hate to see it go, but hopefully it can find a good home.

Interior
Rear seats and trim panels gutted per SM rules. Still has radio, and A/C if you are looking for a little more weight savings.

FIA certified harness good until 2017 on Driver’s side, older harness on Passenger side, good for street and autocross
Almost new OEM 2.5RS Embroidered Floor Mats

The Bad
It is a 15 year old car so there are numerous stone chips on the front end.
The hood scoop and vents are peeling. I do have a spare set to go with the car, but they are peeling as well.
Normal rust on quarters and a-pillar. Passenger side was repaired, but is starting to bubble again. Passenger quarter is slightly off in color from the rest of the car from when it was repaired after the car was hit in 2009. I was considering bigger wheels/tires and flares for next year, and was going to cut out the rust. Would be the “cheap”, easy way to fix it and give you the option for bigger rubber.
Second Gear is blown in stock Trans.

Pricing
$7,500 as it sits now. Save yourself some money and swap the trans/diff yourself
$8,000 with the trans/diff replaced
$9,000 with quarter panel rust repaired.

I will include all the spare wheels and spare/stock parts for full asking price. Please no tire kickers and serious buyers only. Delivery is available within reason. Buyer to pay expenses.

I can be contacted via PM, email, or phone (email me for my number). rdh2 at alum dot lehigh dot edu

I will get updated pictures added shortly. I only have these “action” shots right now. (Novice stripes are removed and numbers are magnetic)
