A snap-oversteer prone car paired with a snap-oversteer prone driver?

A match made in heaven!

Though my understanding is that the AP2 is not as prone to snap oversteer...

I really don't know what I'm doing, though most likely I'll fix the S2k right away and drove it while I finish the Miata, then sell the S2k.

When you gays see the pics you're going to think I'm an idiot.

but I've been assured it's completely fixable and won't cost all that much. We will see.

Yay!


Ouch!














Hey, it starts right up apparently!

If it's NOT that fixable....

F22C swap?

El oh el.

Way more than that. Remember this thing would sell for $18-20k with a clean title. Worth around $14k salvage title fixed.

At my door price (actually at body shop price, not even going to bring it home first) will be $6500 give or take $50. I think I did pretty damn good.
