So I'm not crazy?

I still want a dally Pcar..but this was too hot to let go.... A 2.5 Liter M20 mated to a modern 5speed, remapped ECU and a limited slip closed the seal for me...ah almost forgot a 10K paint job helped....

That's a bummer. Any plans to get it sideways on the track?

sure... she liker to go sideways, unfortunately she's just to pretty for that yet... The paint is just immaculate. I might have to wait till someone , dents it. I'm still nervous around her. I know she can easily spin her wheels in the first three gears.. but having rubber pieces thrown at her on the track.... not sure she's ready for that

I've always loved the 02. I would have rather had a roundie too. Still, there really is something that I connect to with this car. Mine's a '76.

Congrats!

Sweet. Reminds me of a Roundel article I read as a kid - a dark grey 02 with the trim removed and flares like yours. Dreaming...

I have always really liked the 2002.
Sounds like it has some nice upgrades already.
Sweet car!

I WILL own another 2002 someday. It's on my bucket list of things to complete before I die.
