Repairs were made to the front and rear bumper covers, left fender, rocker panel, and driver’s door shell, while the left quarter panel, outer and inner wheelhouse, lower panel, and upper panel were replaced in March 2011 by Monroe Collision Center of Monroe, Ohio. Receipts from the work performed are shown in the gallery. BBS E88 three-piece wheels are mounted with Nitto tires, and a spare set of factory wheels are included in the sale. GT3 Cup-style sway bars have been installed in addition to Tarett Engineering drop links. Stopping power is provided by red Porsche-script calipers over cross-drilled rotors. The rear axles were reportedly replaced in 2020 and an adjustable MOTON suspension setup is also said to be included in the sale. The cabin houses a Cobra Sebring Halo driver’s seat with head restraints and a Cobra Monaco Pro passenger’s seat, both of which are trimmed in black cloth and equipped with Schroth Racing six-point harnesses. A half roll cage has been welded in and additional appointments include a Function First shift kit with GT3 Cup shift cables, Rennline pedals, a fire suppression system, and an integrated Cool Shirt system. The driver door panel has been cut as shown in the gallery. A three-spoke Sparco steering wheel fronts an AiM racing computer with a digital instrument cluster. The odometer shows 20k miles, approximately 400 of which were added by the seller, though total mileage is unknown. The 3.6-liter flat-six features welded coolant pipes and GT3 Cup-style engine mounts. Service performed in 2020 is said to include replacement of the fuel filter, water tubes, hoses, and oxygen sensors. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. A Fabspeed high-flow exhaust with custom center-exit outlets was installed and the catalytic converter was deleted in 2020. Additional underside images are presented in the gallery.
