Great stuff for great cars! Poly engine mounts and bushings at: http://www.polybushings.com
The description states it has a 2.5 auto. I thought they all used TII five speed drivetrains.
It does look mean in black.
Its very dark green. I know that made one auto car...this must be it.
I tried to contact the owner through ebay and it got kicked back.

The one photo shows what looks like another Consulier in the garage.
Here are a few things I notice a 1992 with the last two of the VIN# 10….?
I know my car has #44 written on some body parts but has last two of VIN# 25
Bad news for Johnny trying to keep track that way.
Obviously VIN numbers and production dates don't have anything to do with each other.
I also notice it says air bag …does anyone else have an air bag.?
I was told by Sandy,a lady that owns three Consuliers that her friend called her to come look when all the cars went for sale .
She bought three and her friend bought one , they all live in Delray so that is probably the one.
Wonder why they wouldn't post any pics of the engine bay.?
It's the only auto car. I Know the guy that originally bought it and am in contact with this seller on the car. It is indeed a 2.5, the only one.
Sharp looking car, I like it.
Working on clearing the decks.
This one went for sale briefly several months ago, but was pulled down.
Then it is also the only non-intercooled car i believe.

I sent a message asking if they had put the 2.5 and auto trans in. They replied that is the way it was when they bought it. Did the guy have any more info about the car?
He bought it from the "sale" like we all did.
He is going to post more photos soon.

From the photos on the ebay ad, it looks like it's a 2.5 TI. I would think an intercooled 2.5 5spd would have sold by now, given the reputation these cars have for those in the know. Of course, since there is a Consulier with a TIII, maybe this one needed the same engine or a hybrid, for the asking price.
************** I fully understand that something is only "worth" what someone is willing to pay for it *****************
Given the history, rarity and performance I'm of the opinion that the cars are still way under priced, even at 27k.
I seriously think everyone isn't considering the entire picture. Seems as though it's got "kit car" pricing
Let's have a look at some super cars that are in the same performance category of the same era ( please feel free to add or subtract from the list )...because the Consulier is a supercar.
Lotus elise -- A little newer but the esprit isn't in the same performance category
Acura NSX -- A little newer but included because of that article.
Caterham 7 -- included because some have compared the consulier to it.
Lamborghini diablo -- a little quicker 0-60 times
Porsche 911 turbo ( 964 )
Ferrari 348
..there are some others, but this list should suffice for my point.
** category is slightly opinion based but performance is based on zeroto60times.com **
Now lets look at current market value range ( based on Ebay * cars with bids on them or buy now amount ):
Lotus elise -- $30-70K ( highest and lowest amounts not considered )
Acura NSX -- 37-90K ( highest and lowest amounts not considered ) low 10k, high 149K
Caterham 7 -- no listings..eh, oh well
Lamborghini diablo -- 210-340K
Porsche 911 turbo -- 20-114KFerrari 348 -- 30-125k
Consulier GTP -- 20-30K
Now lets look at exclusivity / rarity ( only cars of that era are used ) :
Acura NSX -- 18,000 built worldwide
Lamborghini diablo ~ 2,000 built worldwide
Porsche 911 turbo ( 964 1991-1994 ) -- 62,172 built worldwide
Ferrari 348 -- 7,125 built worldwide
Consulier GTP ( includes all versions ) 84 built
***This is where things get interesting***
If we try to find something that's limited to roughly the same quantities that the Consulier was produced we have to step back to the early 1960's Ferrari's OR the Porsche 964 turbo S ( 81 built ) but the 964 S was a subset of a larger production base so I'm not sure I'd even consider it.
...all that being said, keep in mind that I do not have an agenda for increasing the value of these...I don't plan on selling...ever.
Just this man's opinion Player1, I've owned roughly 30TM's so I love them but when I looked at the GTP's to purchase(BEFORE the fire sale so they were still asking 80K for the nice ones) I just couldn't get past the looks. Flame away but IMO that's a face only a mother or GTP owner could love. But heck, I like Mini Vans and Omnis so what do I know
