THE CAR
We know this history of this car from new! In 2012, after a life of daily enthusiast driving, it was purchased by someone getting into the world of driver education track days. After 9 years of street and track driving, our client purchased this in 2021.
A truly 'spare no expense' rebuild was started on the car. The engine size was increased to 3.8L by Vision Motorsports with 11-1 JE Pistons, Carillo Rods and many other 'go faster' parts. California Motorsports rebuilt the transmission and a lightweight flywheel was added.
Since then, the engine was broken in over a 250+ mile period and only tracked for a handful of days before our owner became enamored with another track beauty. In preparation for the sale, we pulled off the old yellowed and chipped PPF from the front bumper and side mirrors. That neccessitated us in repainting those items.
This is a tremendous opportunity for someone who is looking to do track days in 2024. Over $40k was spent on the drive train and now it's just sitting there waiting for the next fortunate owner to take it out in anger!
