After a year of informal hunting and 6 months of checking out various cars I finally landed a 00R in March this year. After owning, and tracking, a 95R I was itching to add a big bad brother to the stable.

As luck would have it the car I purchased was never for sale officially. It was a member on here who saw my posts and decided to reach out (I’ll let him indenting himself if he wants). In a matter of days I made the trip to see it and a few days later took it home.

It checked all the boxes I was looking for, which was a tall order. It has all the documentation you could ask for and then some!

So.. why did it take me over 2 months to post this? Today was the first day I actually drove it (other than around the neighborhood) - work, weather, pollen, etc. all conspired to delay the inaugural cruise.

Without further delay... here are some pics from the day I got it and today’s Remember the Heroes car show (great event for a great cause) where it took home Mayor’s Choice. Last picture is it loaded up on the trailer ready for some charity parade laps at VIR coming up - until then it must stay clean!

Congrats, well worth the wait for the right car !

I remember the day I got mine in 2001, the day before thanksgiving. Unloaded it off the truck, had 1500 miles on her, drove it home, and it sat for the winter till the following April.

18 years later, I’ve now got almost 45,000 miles on mine.
