Hey folks,

Well, after reading every post in this section and reading/watching every review on the internet, I ran out of reasons to not get one.

More pics to follow when I actually take delivery sometime in the next week or two.

You have a very expensive and jealousy-inducing stable of cars in your garage now lol.

Congrats! Living vicariously through all of you GP2 owners :nod:

Gp2
 
Been there done that, I still go for the Wee MINI GP you will have a blast. I have 800 miles on mine and I can feel it opening up a wee bit every day I drive it, and the brakes are awesome. Have fun.:thumbsup:

Congrats. You'll enjoy the GP.:nod:

Take it to BMW track day. You'll be faster than your M3.

Congrats man!.... I'm jealous of your line up.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. This car will be a real hoot at the auto-x events, I think. The M3 will likely be leaving my stable and be replaced by the GP2. It's going to be the daily driver and occassional track car. The two places I take the cars to track are NHIS and Limerock. The M3 does ok at the places (soft brake pedal on some occassions), but I have been addicted to smaller momentum cars ever since getting a lot of seat time in some spec Miatas at Skip Barber and SCDA events. Plus, I can't seem to have some type of car attention deficit issue.
