That looks like a really well put together car.
I like it alot.

Not a huge fan of the door bars (NASCAR bars in general, not those specifically), but other than that aspect that looks like a pretty perfect track E46.

What a deal!

Conservatively that owner spent ~$5k/trackday on that car!!

LOL. Fair enough. Car didn't meet reserve, but working things out with one of the bidders. I won't come out whole for how much I have into the car. But, car seems to be going to a good home. Hopefully we'll see the new owner here on m3forum soon.

Good luck. Can't get over the reserve BaT gave you. Runs counter to other stories I've heard from sellers. Maybe they are getting some feedback and loosening up a bit.

I don't know the terminology but I assume you mean the cross bars in the doorways? I have them in my spec miata as well - they are a royal pain to climb over - but as far as I know in that class they are required. I assume that was the case with this build as well.

Bidding on it myself, will be interesting to see what the reserve is.
