I’m just SO uninterested in driving it. It’s fast and loud and bumpy and smelly. The thought crossed my mind to get something cool + easy to bop around in (GTR, R8, 360) but I doubt I’ll follow through on that.

Do you have it listed for sale? Would you really sell it this quick? I mean I know you sell cars quick, but this one is years of labor and engineering.

Edit: Have you driven your bosses new Ferrari yet?

It’s not listed for sale… but I would sell it for the right price in a heartbeat…

He asked if I wanted to, but I said no. I don’t like driving other people’s stuff.

I honestly don’t know. I have ~$40,000 + time into it…

But I don’t expect to get close to 40K out of it.

Wasn’t 40k the magic number posted about a year ago for it?

Also saw a blue Subaru on the 90w all the way to McKinley exit, had an innovative sticker on it. Sounded nice

Who cares? Are you trying to buy another members “project” from on here? lol.

Edit: Spotted a real nice teal V6 Convertible Mustang on Sheridan. It would have been better if it was a Sebring.

Black G8 on French and Millersport with a guy driving…soon as light turned green he hammered it turning left onto Millersport…it roared pretty nicely. Also a late 90s silver Camaro SS with a chick driving on Millersport and Flint it sounded pretty nasty, I turned to look and all I was able to see is that it had some kind of aftermarket exhaust.
