Lol, I saw that model the other day, pretty sweet. My car had suicide doors LOONG before that model, lol.... now I need to Lambo my doors. If only I could get time away from doing everyone elses doors.  Yeah, I meant the Mark LT.. sorry, long say. 
The csvt has many plans. 05 M3 Body kit (already have the front, rear, and sides M3 pieces bought), everything shaved, suede interior, Fiberglass hood and trunklid with removed center reflector, and the most promising will be an AWD system taken from a Jag parts car I've purchased. Not sure how I am going to do it, but I would like to somehow make the AWD system that of Acura and Lexus' new system that accelerate and decelarate opposite wheels to improve on traction. Getting the module and electronics won't be hard, it will be programming them that will be tough. My electronics guy siad he's got me covered, so we shall see. This is the first car that will actually involve some near "Monster garage" [censored].  . I've got an excellent crew working for me and the skys the limit, so all shoudl work out well.

My research has turned up a few in the past on here being in teh classified as being bought brand new in 2002, 2003, etc. Mine, for some reason, was left in a dealer storage garage. The owner past away in 2002 or something liek that, legal battle over who got te dealership (couple sons, wife, mother) and in late 2004/early 2005 the dealership was taken over by his son Robert, who is a friend of my good friend who works for Ford. Low and behold, this little beauty has been sitting in storage next to a Saleen Explorer, couple Cobras, a lightning, etc. Not sure what the reasoning was behind the cars ebing in the storage garage, but he sold them all off dirt cheap. I got ahold of th enew CSVT with like 30 miles on it for a steal of oa price (compared to new). WIndow sticker, vin, everything is clear and checks out, unregistered as of two weeks ago.

i for one am a bit skeptical of this. how about posting some regular pics besides ones that anyone can get off cardomain? how about a link directly to those car domain sites. every shop i have seen that does this caliber of work has a website so i find it odd that yours has been around for 8 years but no site.
if im wrong, i apologize, but it sounds sketchy. either way, nice magnum. but id change the wheels and definitely the grill.

R/T - Any ETA on completion of any of your SVT projects? Just an FYI though, Spring Zing 06 will be held in Fort Wayne, Indiana next year. I'm estimating no less than 60 Contours/Mystiques, and would love to see a one-off M3/SVT Contour! It's a 3 day event, and you're more than welcome to bring guests. It'll more than likely be end of May/Beginning of June. Let me know if you have any questions, if it sounds like something you're interested in. You could make your way up with some of the other Southeast people that WILL be making the trip! Mark

Hello Mark, As for an ETA.. nothings concrete. It'll be a side project when business get's down. So, who knows. Maybe a few weeks for the body, month or so for the heavy internal mods.  What is spring zing?
