Looks like it will be a fun car though, OP! And if your F80 is gonna fill all the daily duties, you can really go as crazy as you want with this one!

The previous owner decided to turn it into a track car after finding out it had an accident on its history. I was looking for a track car and the fact it was a LRP was simply a bonus.

I would convert it to GTS as with the Fire Orange paint, it'd be as close to a GTS as possible in the US. Maybe sprinkle some GT4 sauce on it.

I wanted a track ready car and the fact that this one had accident history and below what LRPs market value made sense to me. Yea i agree GT4 touches here and there.

Thanks man yea i'll probably end up somewhere between a clubsport and a racecar, meaning it will still have AC, glass windows, stock body panels, but also full cage and all racing safety items.
