Just curious, how did you like those tires? They're one of the top 3 rated ultra high performance all seasons, 1st is pirelli p-zero nero m+s and 2nd is michelin pilot a/s.

Just curious (:

P.s. Sounds like a really really nice car, but that price does sound a little high. However, for the quality of what you are offering, it may be worth the extra premium.

Might want to let people know if it's a sedan or wagon.

ContiExtremeContact tires are excellent tires... especially for the money. For roughly 400 bucks, you have a very good set of ALL SEASON high perf tires. These literally are all season. I've taken my wagon out in 6 inches of snow very comfortably. Dry grip is very good (beats the piss out of the stock Pirelli High Perf Summer tires). Only grip is the somewhat soft sidewall. I even hit a few potholes with zero bubbling going on. Needless to say, I'm staring at the 2nd set of these tires waiting to put them on my Titans. I still have about 2/32 or 3/32 of tread left. Just squeezing all I can out of them before I swap them out.

That car sounds like it'd be a good buy, but the busted front lip knocks off about 800 in parts and labor. The spoiler alone is almost 400 from the dealer. Add priming, paint, and installation, and you're looking at what could have been a big mod.

The tires are simply amazing for the money. This is my second set of ContiExtremes. I got a set last year but they were 215/40s. Drove the car for about 7 months with them and after ruining 2 sets of aftermarket wheels, I decided to back to 215/45s.

The car is in really good shape. I've never neglected anything on this car. Everything was done at the dot. The price ofcourse is negotiable.
