2005 Toyota Corv/Echo, I'm desperate, so CHEAP

Located in Vancouver.

This Car is fun and quick, great on gas, babied! it has had oil changes every 5000Km with synthetic oil. It currently has 52,500kms on it.

It also comes with a nice set of winter tires on steel rims!
A lot of money has been spent on this car to make it more fun to drive
($15,000 or more spent, I have most the receipts to prove it)
List of changes (of what came to mind):

Suspension/handling:
Tanabe strut brace on front
Alex rear strut brace
rear sway bar (forget who makes it)
Tanabe coilovers (ride height is adjustable)
Tanabe rear underbrace
Circuit sports x brace
Circuit sports rear lower tie bar

Aesthetics/Interrior:
S2000 Antenna
Corvette leather electronically adjustable seats
Stainless steel shift knob
Momo steering wheel + hub
CF front lip
Sparco pedals
2500 dollar JL stereo
Injen engine cover

Performance:
upgraded front rotors & performance pads
short throw shift kit + bushing
LSD (one of the only ones in Canada, and the last one that was available. cost way too much to install!.. did it at same time as clutch and flywheel)
Alpha werks header

Borla exhaust
AEM cold air intake system
upgraded clutch (from an Xb I think it was)
Lightened flywheel
Underdrive pulley

etc etc.

I am definitely fogetting things.
I have most of the receipts!

The car has been tuned or modified with the objective to keep it clean, no gaudy ugly stuff.
Handles like a dream, virtually NO body roll. the tires grip like mad, and the stereo sounds amazing. Intake and Exhaust let the car pickup some power and run better, but the goal was to keep it good on gas, and make it a lot of fun, check it out.

Asking 10,500 obo The price has been reduced a LOT, as I want to sell the car ASAP, going to California as soon as it sells. HAS TO SELL FAST, MAKE ME AN OFFER! certified cheque this week and I'll hook u up with a steal of a deal.
please email me with any questions you might have, or call.

I emailed him a few days ago about parting a few parts, but he already sold it... dirty cheap by the way

With all those suspension/handdling mods + a LSD that car was begging to become a Turbo project
