Reward for Info on Car
Click for Pics The US Marshall Service sold this '03 G at auction in Philadelphia in '08. The car was bought new in Morrisville, PA and remained in Philly until I bought it. I want to know who owned it before me, why was it an Asset Forfeiture and if the Marshalls or prior owner put the police sirens, flashing lights-tailights and PA System on it. If Marshalls put it on, this may mean they used it for fugitive apprehension, which would make a great conversation piece. Whomever put the Veilside body kit, Axis rims, DVD Movie Player in the trunk, spent alot of money on it. I can watch movies on the Navigation System. It has multiple sirens and the headlights and tailights have built in strobe-flashers, the unit that controls the strobe lights is hidden so well in the interior panels that I can't find it. The public address system is fun to call out to the pretty ladies. Again, this car spent it's whole life in Philly and I just gotta know how it came to be what it is. If you have valid info, I will pay via PayPal $100.00 for the name of the person that owned it before me. I'm wanting to know the name of the person that it was confiscated from and who put the sirens on it. I figured surely someone will recognize this car and be able to help me out.
Here is a link to the video of the car in action
Fast forward to 1:25 for the siren and at 1:40 you can see one of the strobes.
My phone number: 615-834-3828 if you have any knowledge of this paticular cars' history / prior ownership.

Well.. first: The way this all sounds, I don't even want to attempt clicking on the links you provided. I fear for my computers life.
Second, tracking down the names of people for you doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Wow, can you not look and see where the link leads you to?
The last one goes to YOUTUBE for crying out loud. And the first goes to the pictures of the car.
And I'm asking around in this forum because someone JUST might know the previous owner of the car.
I could ALWAYS hire a Private Investigator to get the name from PENN-DOT, but that would cost me more than $100.00
P.S. Get some Anti-Virus software.

Does it really matter? I dont get what youre gonna gain by knowing who the previous owner was.... Its a pretty clean looking car, Id just be happy being the current owner of it.
More than likely the last owner worked in law enforcement and had either a good knowledge of electronics or deep pockets. A few guys I know from other car forums do the same things to their vehicles since theyre fire fighters and police officers. They outfit their cars/trucks with pretty much everything a police car would have ie: strobes, sirens, and whatnot

Everyone's different.
Everyone's different and my preference is to know how the car came to be.
The fact that it was sold at Manheim AUCTION by the Marshalls tells me it was an Asset Forfeiture.
I'm hoping someone, somewhere, knows the guy that owned it in Philly.
I bought the car on eBay in '09 for, get this, are you ready?
Remember, this time last year the car had 25,500 miles, it now has 28,890.
But I paid $16,200 for the car. Instant equity, rare.
