GarageScout Take

S54 and 420G six-speed swaps replace the factory S52 and five-speed, with a Turner Motorsports CSL-style carbon air box, Megan Racing headers and midpipe, Active Autowerke exhaust, ST coilovers, and Apex ARC-8 wheels. The seller reports refurbishment including a rebuilt engine, replaced rod bearings and VANOS system, repaired left-front strut tower damage, and a repaint in factory Fern Green Metallic. It carries an Illinois Rebuilt title after a 2001 total-loss accident, with additional disclosed wear and cosmetic flaws.
