IIRC he had some problems with it around the time he stopped posting.

Thanks... North American VIN pool, but they put Europe style side repeater lights on it...
That was the store demo car.
I think it would have started out as a "2.0", but had "2.5" bumpers & wheels put on later.

Sort of similair question. There's a Roadster Sport on Pete Gruber's site. Looks a lot like Bunnak's car. Is his up for sale?

2011 Roadster 2.5 Base - Very Orange
VIN - 1339
Mileage - 26,919
Price - message if seriously interested

At the request of a good friend, I am facilitating the sale of this impeccable 2.5 with nearly every factory option imaginable, plus over $40,000 in upgrades (both factory and third party Roadster shop upgrades). Please message if interested for more details. Serious interest only. Follow the link above to the TMC listing in the Classifieds section.

Is that Bunnak's car? I showed my wife the color of the car. Let's just say her reaction was that's a lot of orange lol. Beautiful condition.

Note, you mentioned Gruber having a "Roadster Sport", but DeedWest's posting is about a "Roadster Base"...

Seems Gruber is listing that same base Roadster:

Yes - that vehicle is pending sale and heading to Dallas for its new owner. Turns out I’ll get to see it nearby more often than not.

Is Bunnak getting another Roadster ?
I enjoyed watching his restoration of
His car and his input to the club.

He will down the road, I’m sure. I believe he’s holding out for a Brilliant Yellow.

Understood. I pulled you up on his profile the pictures were nearly the same which is what generated the question. Guess I worked too much intel from the past lol.

Thomas you on the intel as usual. If you happen to know Jerry Jones, kick him in the butt and tell him to sign Dak. He franchises him again he's gone.

Hey kids -- long time no talk --
Are there any "affordable" (sub$80k) Roadsters around in the country right now?

Missing my #613 R80... pretty sure its in Kansas still and probably will be forever. Should have hung onto it...
