So only 1 dealer on the east coast is selling them, but 2 dealers in Montanna are selling them. Thats a freaky marketing tactic.

Is it even possible to license the "off road only version"?

Bleh...Navigation?! No thanks.

Are those the stock seats just with red centers?

stevessti · 04-19-2005, 04:23 PM

So it looks like the 425 hp version is for 'Off Road Only', huh? And its not the standard motor.

Xman · 04-19-2005, 05:09 PM

eh, I've seen two of them already, one on display (#001) and one being delivered to the new owner who drove it off the lot (#006). You guys who havent' seen them aren't missing much IMO. Seats and interior are stock, just recovered in red. The nav system is kind of nice. The wheels are awful IMO and basically you could get all the same stuff for a LOT less.

as for the dealers selling them, I believe it has to do with the indivual dealers buying into the idea, both literally and figuratively.

Nice upgrades, but not digging the racing stripe and wheels. Can't seem to find any warranty information

**gforced** · 04-20-2005, 06:54 AM

I believe the warranty on the ESX stuff is handled through ESX. It is probably up to the individual dealer how they handle it.

How much?

non-ricer · 04-20-2005, 09:08 AM

yeah im not feeling it..

jamie_w456 · 04-20-2005, 09:20 AM

i think the warranties are only 2 years and 24,000 miles and i think the price is about 40-45k USD alot of money for a red car with some different parts,tuning and ugly wheels with garbage tires. i do however like the grills and additional body reinforcments

Xman · 04-20-2005, 10:06 AM

2yr 24k warranty is correct, the ones I saw had a $52k sticker :O

***jaybara*** · 04-20-2005, 10:08 AM

I've seen this about a dozen diferent times now, and my opinion still hasn't changed... I'll gladly keep my CGM with stock interior and wheels, and spend $3-4,000 in mods to reach those same power levels. The only reason to buy one of those ESX cars is to put it in a garage for 20 years and hope it's worth $$$.

"handcrafted"....please. Since when did bolting on parts qualify as "handcrafted".
