I can't decide if I want this or not. I could probably get SWMBO on board because it is cheap enough but I am not sure what I would do with it.

I was excited about this until i saw the lake in front of the rear seat on the driver's side.

I want it just for the engine. I've always wanted to put of these engines in a Spitfire.

EDIT I just noticed odometer only has five spaces, so that could be 187,000... or?

The engine is the only thing I liked about mine.

Apparently R comps make them... "interesting" to drive.

It would take a lot of structural stiffening to do that. Mine was so sloppy and weak.

That's a regular occurrence with that platform. Ask Hitempguy

FWIW, 87k, or 187k it shouldn't make much difference. The cars are marginal regardless, and the motors are practically indestructible. Fun cars, but that's about where it ends. They don't do anything particularly well, except start every day, and get incredible fuel economy.

and with the wrong chip they won't even get good fuel economy. 30mpg wasn't what I would call incredible.

Engine is the best thing about these, seats were the second, not the case here.
