this is true...you arent even that far off of 60 when upshifting from 2nd gear...

He's asking $25k. Anyone have opinions on the price?

I'd actually like to have this car as a future restoration project.

Not worth anywhere near that, even though they are rare. For that kind of money I'd much rather have a 924 Carrera GT.
