Thanks.

I think so too. The car is really well built, consumables such as tires and brakes run about the same as my old mazdaspeed 3, so keeping it in top condition should be no problem.

That car will be a classic. Way ahead of its time...everything being electric instead of powered by the serpentine belt is soooo cool. The only that engine does is turn the wheels. Period. I want one very badly...peak hp at red line means to drive it like you stole it. With it having sentimental value, that's not practical for you I guess. Sorry to hear about your dad nerd.

It will see the dragon, autocross and maybe a track day or two. I want to keep it in perfect shape, but I also want to use it as intended.

Yep, the car hobby was something we shared. It was great bonding with him listening to "car talk" or going to races.

I miss the hell out of him.

Thanks. Girlfriend and I moved my stuff out of the Miata and into the S2000 last night. He never minded me driving the car at all, but this was the first time if felt "mine". I really cherish it.

Finally got the Mini back...
Here it is with the blacked out headlights and tail lights, and I'm really happy that the headlights don't have those retractable headlight washers...

I think the black strip, wheels, tint, and new lights all go great together..

pulled into the gas station/GNC on post today between a basic 60s Mustang and an early 90s Skyline GT-R, both had seen better days, especially the GT-R. But there's just something mesmerizing about a GT-R.
