You go through cars faster than an infant goes through diapers. Going to get your S2K? I'm sure Mike could get you a line on a nice clean one.

Or get a slant nose 930. Please? I need to live vicariously.

I can't afford a slant nose 930, it would be a manual 964 or 993 non turbo if 911.

For some reason I see a guy wearing a trenchcoat in a dark ally.

Nah. 400 whp and 300 torques on 93 octane was kind of where I was looking to be. Faster than my BRZ is mandatory. Hard top is mandatory.

Actually there was a turbo 700hp S2000 running TA for awhile, but was later detuned to around 500hp because of grip issues. Not a particularly fast driver, but we already know 700hp tracking is no problem on a S2k. Now for a BRZ/FRS...still need a few more years to work out the kinks, but we're open to helping a build if someone is willing to push the budget. *ahem*

Had coilovers, was tracked, was modified a bit (nothing too crazy).

Sadly not mine, I just built and drove it quite a bit.
