Well, thanks for all the help folks, here's what I picked up...

 

That's a fun car, it's like 195hp and 2600 pounds right?

 

ah the pirates choice type arrrrr

 

Yeah, the cars dyno at about 165 whp stock and weigh somewhere between 2550-2700 depending on where you get your info from. Mine has an intake and headers on the way, so it should have a little more power. I also have some white Volk Te-37's on the way too

I'm really pleased with the car. It puts a smile on my face, and that's about all I can ask for. It's also in near flawless shape, has low low km, and a couple years on the factory warranty. I'm looking forward to getting some seat time on a track to see how it stacks up, however, after hitting some of the local twisties I can't imagine being dissapointed.

I don't know if once the novelty wears off the simplicity and sparceness of the interior will start to bug me, but time will tell. Definitely the sound of that engine coming through what very little sound deading is in the car won't.
