All upgrades were completed by the second owner of the car prior to our company's managing partner purchasing it in 2006. The only modification made in the recent past was removing the racing seats and restoring the factory correct silver leather interior.

Since then the vehicle has been stored in a heated garage, cared for and maintained annually with only 2,000 miles driven since purchase. (a total of ~12,000 miles since the complete rebuild and restoration.)

This vehicle is an amazing opportunity to own a beautiful classic car upgraded to compete with the best modern cars available that is equally at home driving to work or spending a week at the track.
