Also, the GT640 package didn't include the Hitachi MAF or EVOMSit s/w or "GT660" components...

Ive already decided never to look back at all the monies put onto the car but just to enjoy it. I still get a kick every time I walk in the garage knowing I have my dream car set up just the way I wanted it. True we will never get the price for the upgrades we put in to them but to me its well worth it.

The guy may have overpaid or is overinflating his costs on everything, but none of that matters.
This does:
" You will be a Rock Star at the next PCA or SCCA track event"

That's right guys, for the low, low price of $120,791.86 you will be blasted into fame similar to that of Kid Rock, Bret Michaels, and Bono. I'd say that's one hell of a deal. I'm about to place a bid.
