Childhood dream car, and finally picked one up a little over a month ago. It had been a single owner, only driven casually in summer otherwise garaged. Just inside 15k miles, all original. Not totally mint, but in really amazing condition...especially the interior/dash. Even got to have it delivered and a group of us got to watch it rolled off the truck. Absolutely loving it and the shared joy it brings. Anywhere I take it its thumbs up, waves, people coming out of gas stations, etc. So much fun to share the love, and an absolute blast to drive. Been to several car shows with it already. Its definitely a race car built into a sexy frame...so it drives like a 30yo race car, not like a c8 etc. But so much more unique, rare, and fun. Pretty binary...no traction control, etc. Just you and six gears and never-ending torque.
