Not a bad start for the price. Could turn out to be a great car at $4,200:

Nice. I agree. Is that just a bodykit and wheels on a stock M119? Or are there other mods? 322HP? I'm thinking the stock early M119s were more like 300? Then again this is a CL ad....

Early M119's had more HP than the later M119's. 320hp were found on the later ones, while early ones had 330hp.
