3) The price is about right. The only reason I would return it is if you can't get over the concerns. I will say again none of that list is an issue and most certainly in no way confirmation the car has ever seen a track.


4) Reddit is the WORST place to get info on these cars. Well, Facebook is close. I am not going to go read it but predict it is full of "experts" with all sorts of hogwash speculation and outright bullshit.


Relax, drop the redline, fill up with 93 and enjoy the small gains in HP all those base mods get you.
Thank you for your reply. I am very (actually clinically) OCD and this is my first major car purchase so the thought of relaxing is actually quite pleasing, haha.

I suppose to point one, you're saying he could have trailered it to every track day available for 3 years, or kept it completely on the street - so those 11.5k miles could be either way. If these cars are as intended for the track as my research suggests, perhaps it will make 150k anyway. Eh?
