  • FP BMW, $7k

    I know nothing about it actually, just saw it.. name on the ad was JackMott

    I am putting up my 1994 325/328i for sale. It is currently prepared for the FP solo2 autocross class. The car would be legal in ITS or JP road racing classes with minor changes. The car is a blast to drive and has had many FTD (fast time of the day) finishes in autocross events across Texas and had a strong showing at Nationals as a DSP car. In its current state the car is usually faster on an autocross course than a race tire equipped z06 Corvette with similar driver talent. The car is currently street legal, with all necessary lights and signals operating. This makes it convenient to get to the track, but you could also lighten it a lot more if you plan to tow it.

    With its light weight and upgraded cooling system this car makes a great track day car. You can drive it to the track with your tools and race tires inside and go seriously fast then drive it home. It can also contend for fast time of the day at every autocross you go to. The car is not pretty but the important parts have been taken care of and it performs amazingly.

    That is Jack Mott's car. He's here in Houston. The car could actually be pretty fast, but he did 99% of the work on it... and lets just say he isn't an ace mechanic.

        It was before he bought it (and paid too much)... and it still is.

          OH, I forgot the reason I posted it...it was originally advertised for...................... $12,000 !!!

          He dropped it to $7k.

          I don't know the sum of the parts, but it seems like it has a lot of stuff - I'm sure an E36 carbon friggin' fiber hood ain't too cheap...

            Yeah... but it's a sedan... so the CF hood and Trunklid will only fit a sedan.

            I'd offer $3k if I were serious about it.

                That was back when it was a DSP car. It was 1/2 way presentable then.
