Not really interested in either to be honest. The can am is a LS6 with 500 rw , but not refined enough for my likes. I’m just in the “looking” stages to see if anything catches my interest. So far, nothing… oddly, I like the 80’s convertable balck 911’s with a huge tail… I dunno… Probably just keep snooping… Its part of getting older… bigger dreams and more income… you’ll see. ---

Yea the Ultimas are pretty hard core of a ride. I have ways to make them more “plushy” with reworked suspension arms and uprights but defeats the purpose of the car. I remember chatting with you on the topic of selling the Atom and getting a GTR. Buy a late year Porsche 930(3.3L) with a G50/52 short bell swap. Any tweaks you need done to that you know who to call 😉 ---
