Yeah, I would totally love to have that car, but I have no place to keep it and no place to drive it. Kinda defeats the purpose of owning it. The closest track to run it on to me is a long way from here. I'd have to buy a bigger truck and a trailer to haul it in. Of course, then there's all the incidentals that go with it like spare parts, tools, pit crew (friends with nothing better to do than burn a weekend driving to a track and helping me with my car ). It's a huge investment. I can totally afford the car itself, but it's the other stuff that would BMW (break my wallet).

I've been wanting to do something like that for a long time, but it's just not within my means right now. Maybe in a couple more years. I'm still chained to a business that I thought for sure I was selling only to have the buyer get disqualified at the very end of the deal. So I'm still handling the day to day operations and headaches myself. I decided to hang on to it a while longer anyway, so my amatuer racing career will have to wait a while longer as well.

I see the passenger seat has been removed in leu of a caged-in area to put your grocery bags. Very good design.

My wheels can beat up those wheels!

Thanks for the offer, but it's a bit of a logistical problem seeing as how I live about as far away from Canada as I possibly could without living in Mexico .

Bleach lives in our version of the "Great White North"... He should cash in all his Home Depot stocks and snap that baby up Then he could take you up on that offer. Although, he may not want it cuz it's not a 2+2

I'd love to give that thing a test run around a track. That's awesome though. Wish I could afford that.
