Default Exocet with Low Mileage Donor
So as you can see it doesn't look like it's in the best of shapes, but the last reported mileage was at 35,000 miles of last year. Thanks to my sponsor Manhammer Motorsports I will have an Exocet in a few months. I drove this 2001 NB back from where I bought it about 110 miles yesterday. Everything drove smoothly, beside running just a header and dealing with noisy exhaust.



Driving it back
