SOLD:Selling my 2012 RT (white) that needs a new engine. Dealer removed all right side panels and engine components and gave me a repair estimate higher than I was willing to pay. All other parts of the Spyder are in great condition. Located in Albuquerque, NM and asking $4,000. Email apotts5203@gmail.com or call 505-301-5203
Did the dealer say why it needed a new engine? What in the engine is broken? Does it run?
Have you tried to source a used engine from Salvage operetors ???? ….. just a thought ………….. Mike :ohyea:Quote:

Did you purchase the new 2018 from the dealership that told you your 2012 needed a new engine? If you did maybe you better watch out or shop for a B.E.S.T. extended warranty. Of course if you don't want to share why you sere simply told the '12 needed a new engine that's your business.
No, I bought it from another location.
Probably a wise move IMO.
Be nice to know what's blown!!! What was it doing to make you take it to the shop?
if all we have to go on is the dealer telling you you need a new engine....:yikes: it is hard to say much. Parting out the spyder will be tough and you will end up with too much and finding someone that wants one with no working engine could take some time. Good luck.... there must be someone who has the reverse issue with a damaged unit with a good engine....:thumbup:
