Default Info on wpoac29947s792189 07 white gt3

If anyone knows the previous owner of the car, I was hoping to get in touch with them about their ownership and fill in some service gaps.

Specifically, I'm looking for the east coast owner, I already know the west coast owner

this car reminds me of one that was for sale in NY several years ago. It was heavily autocrossed and tracked.

First impressions say I would want to see the PPI/DME report on it - left rear tail light is sitting in the hole kind of wonky and at first glance it looks like the quarter and bumper are not 100% color matched perfectly. Would want have that looked into as those are two signs there have been repairs on the rear quarter possibly??

Some more info from previous owner perhaps:

Know nothing of the car however, good luck with it.

Rear seats and remote reservior MCS. That's an odd combination...

Yep! That’s the same one.

I remember the owner autocrossed and tracked it extensively, but also religiously maintained it.

Best of luck OP!

Do you already own this car or considering purchasing? It would make a nice track car with the upgrades.

already have it, just trying to fill out the blanks in the history of the car

what started this rabbit hole chase is that the coolant line pinning was incomplete, see my other post

the work was partially completed and unlike middle school math, I give no partial credit to this incomplete task that has needlessly cost more money
