Very fun. I did not track but it would be a monster.

The bad. Cosmetics. No one thing is really bad but several little things. At this point either best as a weekend driver or track car. You could probably make money parting it out.

The Bad Stuff

Rear seats are from 2nd gen MINI

Hood scoop is carbon fiber but the coating was peeling. I plastidipped and the plastidip is peeling. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Rear spoiler paint was peeling. I plastidipped it but that is now peeling.

lower part of A-pillar trim was damaged in transit.

 

This is so cool! Where are you located?

 

Thanks! I'm about 20 minutes north of Chicago in a town called Glencoe. When do you want to look at the car?
