Good deal on a Blitz?
Guy is looking to sell me a Blitz Nur Spec RX catback system to me for 485. I would have to drive about 4 hrs ONE WAY to go get it. The system has less that 1000 miles on it and looks really clean? You all think this is a good grab for such a nice system?
Also, is this system readily usable with a catless downpipe even though it tapers to 2.5'' at the DP? Thanks.

Driving four hours each way at an estimated 65 mph means you'd be traveling 520 miles. Estimate fuel cost at $3,50 per gallon and fuel consumption at stead at 25 mpg, and you'd need 17 gallons of fuel costing roughly $60. This brings your direct cost to $545 plus the cost of wear/tear on the car. Then there's your time. Multiply 8 hours times the amount of money you could earn working for 8 hours. It's not worth it to me. Whether it's worth it to you is up to you...

The guy could probably just ship it to you for less than it would cost you in time/money to go pick it up.

In the end, it's up to you and the seller to determine what would be fair for both of you.
