    I purchased a very identically built car from Dean's close friend. I can vouch for Dean solely based on that. Very properly built car. Worth every penny for someone looking to purchase a future classic that can also put its money where its mouth goes.

    This thing is incredible. If I hadnÂ’t just bought a 4,000 mile E92 M IÂ’d take this off your hands.

    Does it have any issues? Is it E85 only or is there a low boost tune for 91/93 octane?

    Thanks...I've added a list of 'kinks' to my add. They do not affect drivability or reliability at all, and more so small annoyances that can be resolved w/ time. With me not driving it much, I haven't had the time or energy to work on it nor do I want to bring in the car for small issues. Yes, a 91 octane file/tune is included however I have yet to use it.

    Minor details that can be solved with time/research or can be left alone w/ out affecting functionality or reliability:
    -When changed to custom steering wheel, horn is inconsistent and airbag light was activated
    -Coolant sensor may not be compatible w/ Mishi expansion tank, or may just need replacement. Reads low coolant on OBC but level is OK
    -ABS/ASC light on due to ASC disconnect (ABS still functional)
    -ZKW projectors and license plate LED lights cause OBC to read errors. No issues other than OBC notification
    -Rear tires rub after upgrading to Toyo R888
    -Spoiler paint quality is sub-par due to difficulties painting carbon fiber
    -Driver side door actuator sticks but works OK w/ key. No FOB included
    -Headlights need leveling. Purchased new but have not gotten around to leveling at night.
    -Windshield washer fluid reservoir eliminated, turbo kit did not allow to be relocated
    -Battery needs tie down
