I’ve been contemplating selling it lately for an E92 M3… But I still have yet to put the wheels on and such, and they were expensive, so I’d like to at least keep it for another summer. The R8 would be much more expensive than what I’d want to spend, but who knows around that time. I will stick w/ European most likely, unless I want an R35 GTR, which should be coming down in price (used) and I’d get one w/o launch control lol. ---
