I just finalized the deal to buy this littel bugger... Should have it by the weekend and I expect to have it at the MazdaDriver's event in September.

This doesn't have anything to do with my race car plans... But does replace the C5 I sold a couple of months ago!

Sweet color. I'd have opted for the coupe, either way a sick car. No hating on the BMW's from me. This C5 is actually my first non-german car. My first car was a 74 2002tii.

Awesome buy man

A friend of mine got really pissed when someone said to him of his BMW Z roadster "that is a really cute Miata". Hey, I had a blast at NHIS in my (now) wife's Honda Accord V-6 Coupe. When you show up at the track in a ZO6 or a Trans-Am/GT-1 car everyone expects you to be fast. With that car you can go surprise and embarrass a lot of Vettes, Evo's, M3's etc.

Geez that's not so bad for a DD. I was expecting something completely different. I picked up a mint green Escort ZX2 for my driver...clean, 5-speed, nicely equipped, and only $2500.

And it is part of my racing plans...more money saved on gas=more money spent on the race car.

The M roadster and M coupe are my favorite Bimmers. No dissing here, as long as you hang around the forum!

Love the color, also (but then, I'm partial to blue )

Have a good one,
Mike
