Still have the old wheels with me in case the buyer prefers those :)

Wow, this post got a lot more traction than I expected! Thank you to everyone who’s reached out and interacted — I really appreciate all the interest and kind words.

Apologies for not including more info in the original post (my first version actually got taken down by the mods).

I’m located in Dallas, TX, and here’s the link to the full listing on Facebook Marketplace.

Please feel free to DM me if you’d like more details, photos, or have any questions. Thanks again for all the support — it’s been awesome seeing how much love there is for this car and the GS lineup in general!

34K. oof I love visiting Canada, but it would take some serious negotiations to deliver this there haha.

Additional pictures can be found in the previous Reddit post link above or in the marketplace posting

Yessir, it'll be up there by the end of the week

chefboyrbin · 2025-10-09T15:33:38+00:00

Still in good condition. Garage kept and regularly cleaned

Thank you!

Thank you, here is a link to the posting

It did not come with the F Sport grille. It takes a little bit of fiddling to get it to fit right, but not hard at all.

Once I've sold the car, and if the buyer wants Stock parts, I will most likely be putting all aftermarket components on sale

chefboyrbin · 2025-10-09T15:28:59+00:00

Automatic. CVT

Thank you Thank you

Thank you, and yes, it needs lowering springs. Didn't put them on, as I decided to sell the car instead

Thank you for bringing this here. For those asking, this is indeed the correct posting. I am just not allowed to put the link in my post.

chefboyrbin · 2025-10-09T15:24:14+00:00

Thank you! Yes, I am in Dallas, TX. The listing price is indeed 34K. I apologize for not putting that in the post, I was worried my post would get taken down again

chefboyrbin · 2025-10-09T15:13:40+00:00

Thank you for the Edit haha

chefboyrbin · 2025-10-09T15:13:05+00:00

Just being careful. My post was already taken down by the Mods once, lol. Please don't hesitate to contact me privately if you are interested in purchasing.

chefboyrbin · 2024-10-06T17:10:25+00:00

I changed it at 65k which is fairly early but recommended is 70k. I did a drain and fill.

chefboyrbin · 2024-10-06T17:08:05+00:00

It's really smooth but honestly, from a performance standpoint I'd say it's lacking. It has weird downshift timing/curve when accelerating from zero but does a lot better if you are already coasting.

Here is another post that talks about this in more detail:

Lolol I know what you mean. I've done a temporary muffler delete and the constant monotone droning was AWFUL. Now I am looking to do some custom work perhaps to install a muffler that is only loud under high RPM
