LOL @ the asking price.

2003 Q's are going for less than $40k (I saw several sell for $36).

Those wheels need to be melted down and made into jewelry for some rapper.

Is that an M-90? I wonder if it came with the intake casting or if they had one custom made? Looks like some kind of adapbter plate between the casting and the TB. Also wonder if the supercharger is sealed or if you can change the oil on it. Hmmmm...

I wonder why all these supercharged F50 come up to the Pacific NW to die? Maybe we are the SC F50 burial grounds.

Long time no post, Brian!

Lots of things die in the great northwest including but not limited to:HappinessEconomic prosperityMy orthodontist (nitrous ox-suicide)Prostitutes (Former neighbor was serial killer Yates, met his wife)and Sunshine

Okay, thats a bit dismal. But I do wonder why so many supercharged Qs end up on the auction block. Whats wrong with them and who is buying them?

The supercharger kit for the VK45DE is less than $10k.

You can pick up an 02 Q45 for low 30s.

looks like an oil feed line to the right of the unit [see the SS braided line]

what kind of power do you think that supercharger adds? I'd estimate it bringing total power to 400-450hp.

I believe the supercharger Jason B mentioned a while back upped the HP to 440. Dunno if this is the same one though. At any rate, did you see he lowered his starting bid price to $55,800? Still too high IMO. You can get one for 36-40k and spend 8k on a supercharger setup and save yourself at least $7,000 to buy hankies for LS430 owners.

Notice they say that the wheels are an extra 6000...... For that price it should include the wheels and someone to wipe your butt for a year
