anyone have a FF275 car or VF supercharged car they're considering selling?

My advice is get an unmodded elise and purchase the VF stage 2 kit yourself!

yeah, but I've seen two FF275 cars sell for around $30k these past few months.

a base elise is what? $25k + kit + clutch + labor...

You have to ask yourself why they are for sale! I personally wouldn't buy a modded car because they tend to be driven harder and the VF kit is a newer product retaining the stock engine management with a reflash versus a standalone ECU, its a turnkey solution and will get you to similar power levels!

Or you could keep looking and find a already built monster.

I have a FF275 Elise for sale if your interested. It's currently running at low boost and putting down 220WHP. I just ordered a boost controller and I'm going to have the car retuned at 10psi which should put it close to 260whp.

Here is the link to my post. 2005 Lotus Elise Turbo FF275 w/EFI Arctic Silver (SoCal)

let me know if you have any questions
